Description

A rounded pottery vessel photographed close up on a pale grey background, filling most of the frame. Several parallel horizontal grooves run around the upper body below a dark rim, and below them are panels of closely spaced incised lines set at angles. A small loop handle projects from the upper right edge, and the surface shows small pits and hairline cracks.
