Hello everyone,

I'm finishing up an article on pottery from a privy deposit in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and I'm seeking help on terminology. If you look at the image linked below in this email, you'll see a plate with edges which form 8 crests circumscribing the vessel. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me a specific name or method to describe this form to differentiate it from plain circular plates. Any suggestions or references would be most helpful.
