Description

A round-bodied jug with a flat ring base and a short, wide neck topped by a knob-like lip. Dark painted decoration on the pale body shows an animal with long curved horns and a hatched body, with a chevron band on each side. Cracks and join lines run across the neck and shoulder, and the jug stands on a plain pale surface.
