| description | Two-handled jar with evert rim. Handles on opposite sides of upper body are flat with slightly depressed center. Bottom flat. Paste medium, grey-brown. Surface outside light brown with light grey and light buff stains; wheel marks at neck. Inside coated with grey. Decorated around neck with a red-brown line over a dark brown zigzag line within borders of the same colour. On upper body two panels almost identically decorated with horizontal lines are separated by the handles. In one panel 13 lines are present: from top downward, 6 red-brown, 3 dark brown, 4 red-brown; the opposite panel contains 14 lines: 7 red-brown, 4 dark brown, 3 red-brown. Red-brown stains on the handles suggest that they too were decorated. The design is crude, the lines not well drawn. |
