Description

A tall pottery object with a flat, rectangular body stands against a plain light background. Its dark surface has incised bands of horizontal lines, chevrons and zigzags, and three rounded openings are set one above another down the centre. Two shallow bowl-shaped sections sit at the base, the front one broken, and pale patches of wear show on the surface.
