Description

Several dozen pottery vessels are arranged in five tiers on a dark draped cloth. The top rows hold large jars with loop handles and bands of circles and stripes painted on their shoulders, some with visible cracks. Lower down are smaller jugs, a row of open bowls and a few tiny juglets, several with handles or spouts.

Description, scan 2: A single jug photographed against a dark plain background, standing on a low base. It has a flaring neck with painted bands near the rim, a strap handle rising from the shoulder to the rim, and a rounded body. A concentric circle motif sits on the side of the body, thin painted lines run around the shoulder, and a dark patch on the right side may be a break or shadow.
