Description

Many pottery vessels are laid out in several rows on a pale background. The upper rows hold tall jugs, juglets and a large two-handled jar, with some vessels painted with bands and concentric circles, and flat round dishes with loop handles sit below them. Lower rows hold more jugs, bowls and dishes, and a separate strip of small bowls, dishes and juglets runs along the bottom edge of the mount.
