Description

A round-bodied jug with a tall narrow neck, a broken rim with a pinched lip, and a single loop handle running from neck to shoulder. Incised zigzag lines and small knobs decorate the neck, a vertical band of incised marks runs down the body, and a small knob projects from the shoulder opposite the handle. The jug stands on a wire stand against a plain grey backdrop.
