| fired light red, with grey surface and at core | (under street no. 2) | |
| grey where the wall is thick, | Chamber East, | |
| fine, hard, sonorous, light, | northern half. | |
| with some fine porosities. |
Drawing: profile of a jug with a rounded body, cylindrical neck and handle from rim to shoulder
| Visible temper: rare | ||
| fine white grains. Small holes in the surface, | ||
| not very numerous, burst. Two blisters | ||
| at the neck-body join. | ||
| Made by hand in three parts: body (1 or 2 parts?) | ||
| neck, handle. Neck scraped vertically. The whole vessel | ||
| very well smoothed, particularly the handle-rim join. | ||
| Slip very thin, carefully applied, | ||
| horizontally and sometimes obliquely, over all | ||
| the exterior of the vessel and the interior of the rim. Dark brown | ||
| to black, finely burnished. | ||
| Form: no base, base slightly convex, | ||
| joined to the body by an barely perceptible, rounded angle. | ||
| Body squat pear-shaped. Neck cylindrical, slightly | ||
| curved, joined to the body by a sharp angle. Handle flat | ||
| thick, from the rim to the middle of the shoulder, where it is fixed | ||
| by a hole through the wall. Rim slightly flared, | ||
| with narrow lip slightly moulded, slightly de- | ||
| formed: perhaps barely trefoil, but not certain as incomplete. |
