W., Crowfoot, G. M. H., Kenyon, K. M., & Palestine Exploration Fund. (1957). ''The objects from Samaria''. London: Palestine Exploration Fund. For ESA, still no production centers have been identified but distribution patterns suggest an origin in northern Syria. ESA is distinguished by the fineness of its fabric, which stands out as very pale in comparison to the deep red-slip that usually covers all surfaces. When fully applied, the slip is of a consistent color and thickness across the vessel. There are many examples on which the thickness of the slip varies considerably or on which firing is inconsistent and very dark in patches. A full range of plates, bowls, cups ...
