	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	good
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.	lead: is perhaps rather short.

	2c. it contains no original research.	ok
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.	seems to do so
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).	no wandering
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.	correct tone
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.	single editor
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.	all images licensed on Commons
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.	all images relevant and captioned
	7. Overall assessment.	Interesting article integrating scholarly detail in an attractive and informative manner. A pleasure to find here at GA.

Construction - Unclear?

I had to read the part about how the clay shell if sormed several times before I realised that the borad is used to shape the inside of the shell and also to work out that any inscription is inscribed also on the inside and (must be) mirrored about a vertical.

This is not an area I particularly know anything about so I don't want to cause any trouble but I think this could be clarified. FerdinandFrog (talk) 15:10, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

As it happens, you aren't the first person to mention that - I thought I'd rewritten that bit to be somewhat clearer, but it evidently needs more work (without a diagram, it's surprising hard to describe). I'll have another look and see if I can do a better job of it. Thanks for the suggestion. Yunshui 雲‍水 07:00, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
