Description

Looking down into a pit-like tomb at Marion, several pottery vessels lie together on the floor during excavation. Jugs and juglets sit close around a large two-handled jar with a dark opening at lower left, and a shallow bowl lies at right. Pale rock edges frame the cutting, while haze and soft light blur the upper part of the picture.
