Condition	Conserved from numerous fragments. Portions of the bowl and rim are missing.
Description	The bowl curves out broadly, then bends upward to form a lip about 0.013 m high. The lip is slightly thicker than the bowl (it is 0.005 m thick); it has a rounded edge at the rim. The hollow foot flares out slightly; its rim is finished off with square edges. Dark brown or black stripes, of which few traces (mostly grooves left by the brush) remain, were painted on the outside surface of the lip and on the bowl below the lip. There are a few dark traces inside the bowl which may be paint. The outside surface of the foot is painted brown; the inside surface is apparently painted with a black stripe at the top and a brown stripe at the bottom; however, part of the preserved traces of the "brown stripe" appear black.
Fabric Description	Fine pale buff clay
