A bowl with flaring sides, a direct rim, and round lip. The basal diameter is 16 cm. The vessel was extremely eroded, so the red (2.5YR 5/8) color of the paste predominates. A very pale brown (10YR 7/3) color also occurs. The vessel was subject to carbonate accumulations. The thickness of the walls varies from 0.7 to 0.9 cm within which there is a 0.5 cm wide core of grayish brown (2.5Y 5/2). The bowl was the upright bottom vessel within the upper set of two lip-to-lip cache deposits.
