| Description | This mostly fragmented cup is in the shape of an inverted bell. It is made from a light brown fine paste and was possibly made by hand. The rim tapers to a round point, and the bottom is flat but slightly rounded. The surface is brown and smooth with dark purplish brown painted decoration. The decoration is in the form of two opposed horizontal series of angles, separated by two opposed trees that resemble thickly cross-hatched triangles connected across their base by a verticle line. The lipline overlaps on the exterior and interior. |
