Comments
One of two similar vessels (with V# 082), the bowl has round incurving sides, a round base, and a direct round lip. Four nubbin feet were added after the vessel was formed and provide support (unlike V# 082). The nubbins are each 1.5 cm in height. Red (2.5YR 5/8) slip covers interior and exterior surfaces, and the paste is a yellowish red (7.5R 5/8). The bowl was the upper vessel in a lip-to-lip cache.
