Description

A round-bodied jug stands on a pale surface, with a narrow neck, a flat-topped rim and a single loop handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. Dark painted bands run down from the neck over the shoulder and body, and thin horizontal incised lines circle the lower body. The surface is worn and flaking in places, and the view is taken from slightly above and to one side.
