20.228	Bowl in coarse ware.	T. 1907
	Brown-red terracotta, (drawing)	(under street no. 2)
	fairly coarse, very hard, fairly	Dromos.
	resonant, with abundant fine white grit.
	Wheel-made. Buff slip with fine
	burnishing striations; red flashed zone on the exterior.
	Flat base, bowl with a cap-shaped body in the form of
	a hemisphere barely exceeded. Rim slightly
	thickened towards the interior, with a flat horizontal
	lip. Under the rim, small half-spool lug,
	pierced horizontally (sherd not joining). On the
	diametrically opposite wall two small holes under
	the rim (at 1,85 cm from each other).
	(The attribution to this vessel of the sherd bearing the
	pierced lug is not certain: the width of the lip
	is not quite the same, but the appearance of the earth
	fired, the shape of the rim, correspond. If not, the sherd
	is isolated).
