Here are a couple more pieces from the NE GA rock shelter I've been going to. Most of what I've found is undecorated, which I assume can't really be IDed, but these two pieces have some design. I think the one on the left is probably still paddle marked, but it doesn't look the like the same Swift Creek type that the first sherd I found was. At first I thought it was incised, but on closer inspection I don't think that's the case.
The other piece is weird. It almost looks like a flat base that you'd get from a potter's wheel, but they definitely didn't have those. I think it's still ancient pottery, though. Any idea what it is? Is it just a piece of design making it look like that?
