KALORIZIKI, TOMB 1 (continued)

X P 2237	23.	Bucchero jug with strap handle with light buff clay.
		Unlike other Bucchero pots it has a foot. This is
		most interesting as it is the only Bucchero pot that
		we cannot assign to Burial 2 with any degree of
		probability. It appears to belong, and very likely
		does, to Burial 1. Another difference between this
		pot and other Bucchero pots is the comparatively low
		ribbing.
