Comments

This well-made large bowl may have originally been supported on a pedestal. The interior is undecorated, while the lip has a row of stamped circles (motif A417) along the inner edge and motif PK475 consisting of cutouts and dentate stamped semicircles along the outer edge (PK475 may be a simplified variant of the “twin long-beaked bird” design). On the exterior the decoration begins with motif A1, below which is zone marker RZ4D-5R-2, and then after a slight gap the main motif is PK68, a variant of the zigzag design family.
