Slightly eroded, this bowl has a straight direct rim and a square lip. The basal diameter is 18 cm and the thickness of the wall ranges from 0.9 to 1.2 cm. Red (2.5YR 5/8) slip has been applied to the interior and exterior, while the paste is a pale brown (10YR 6/3). The vessel was one of two found inverted over the skull.
