Comments

This is a very thick ring foot base, quite similar to ECA-V-131 but differing in the details of motif PK465 and hence from a different vessel than the latter. On a vertical riser between cut outs there is motif PK201, consisting of a simple repeated series of horizontal dentate stamped lines. Another section between cut outs has a fragmentary motif, TFG1855. Below these, along the base of the ring foot, is a RZ4D-3-1 zone marker, below which is found motif PK465, a repeating series of vertical dentate stamped bars alternating with stamped semi-circles.
