Description

A globular jug with a tall neck that flares to an uneven, chipped rim, shown from the front on a thin wire stand against a plain pale background. The neck carries horizontal incised lines, and the body has vertical bands of short parallel strokes, a ring motif with a central loop, and cross-hatched panels at the left and lower right. Two small lug handles project from the shoulder, and cracks run across the dark, worn surface.
