Description

A rounded pottery jug with a pinched spout at the rim, a tall neck and a single loop handle rising from the shoulder to the rim. The body is globular on a low, flat-footed base, with a band of paler horizontal lines around the shoulder and dark mottled spots and wear across the surface. The jug stands on a pale surface against a plain grey backdrop.
