EVA-V-049

This flat bottom dish with unusually flaring sides has a burnished, undecorated interior surface. The lip is decorated with a row of stamped circles (motif A417) on the inside, and motif PK43, the “double beaked-bird” design on the outside of the lip. This is the same lip design seen on other vessels such as ECA-V-025 and -027. On the exterior, the decoration is executed in extremely fine, needle-point like dentate stamping, beginning with zone marker RZ4D-4R-2, below which is the main motif PK208, a variant of the zigzag design. The base of the rim is decorated with PK207, another variant of the “double beaked-bird” design. This vessel exhibits a high degree of skill and precision in the execution of the decoration.
