Description

A round-bodied pottery vessel seen from a three-quarter angle against a grey backdrop. A high strap handle rises from the shoulder on the left, a short tubular spout projects on the right, and the wide flat mouth has a ring of small holes. Dark painted bands run around the neck and a broad band encircles the lower body, with vertical strokes on the shoulder; the surface is pitted and worn.
