Description

A deep, cup-shaped pottery vessel, wider at the rim and narrowing to a rounded base, stands alone on a plain light background. It is made of many reassembled sherds, with pale filler showing in the joins and along broken edges near the rim and body. The surface is dark and the rim is broken in places.
