Comments

This is the rim of a large, well-made and quite thin-walled jar, which may have been carinated although this cannot be determined with certainty. The out-turned lip is decorated with closely spaced parallel lines (motif M77-1-3). On the exterior the geometric motif (PK299) has been executed with very fine incising, careful attention having been paid to keep the line spacing very regular and uniform. The same motif appears on ECA-V-235, although this is clearly a separate vessel.
