Description

A round-bodied painted vessel with a loop handle on each side, photographed on a pale surface against a plain light background. The decorated face carries a broad dark band, concentric rings around a dark central disc, and a wavy band of interlinked dark strokes between the rings. The clay body is pale and smooth, with some surface marks and dark streaks where the paint has worn.
