Description

A round-bellied pottery jar with a wide mouth, a short flared neck and two small horizontal lug handles, each with a hole through it. The upper neck and shoulder carry dark painted cross-hatched lattice bands and horizontal lines, with more diagonal and vertical painted strokes on the body. Several cracks run across the body, and the vessel rests on a pale curved stand.
