Description

Nine vessels are arranged in rows against a plain pale background. The upper and middle rows hold six large handled jars: four have dark painted bands, circles and linear patterns, and the central one is plain and unpainted. Along the bottom stand three smaller vessels: a dark bowl with a band near the rim, a broken shallow dish, and a small juglet with a single loop handle.
