| Description | This vessel has a slightly flaring rim and a single vertical handle coming from the upper neck to the point of maximum body bulge. The upper sides of the vessel are slightly concave, then there is a major convex bulge and below that the sides flare in to a slightly concave low disc base. The bottom of the base has a small hole punched into but not through it. The exterior of the pot is smoother but evidently not burnished. The interior and much of the exterior is covered with a light brown concretion. |
