Comments

This large, relatively thin-walled jar was clearly made by the paddle-and-anvil technique. The incised decoration is restricted to the lip and the outer surface above the carination line. The lip motif is PK241, while the main motifs are PK164 above PK108. This vessel is very similar to ECA-V-018 and is likely to have been made by the same potter.
