Pot Lid

Contemporary terracotta cooking pot with a lid and woven grass ring for a stand. The stand was probably made for tourist purposes; it is mostly of natural grass, and has bands of dark brown and orange-dyed grass woven in. The pot is slightly carinated and has a short flared rim. The lower body is covered with cordmarking. The upper body is undecorated except for a long incised horizontal line dividing the upper body in half. The lid is domed and rather roughly finished; the handle is of a "pinch" of clay with indentations for the fingers to grasp.
