- Description
- A small rim fragment with a strong inward curve at the top. Exterior: two bands of glaze appear near the rim, and three wiggles remain in the handle frieze. Below are portions of six horizontal bands. Glaze: exterior, red for the wiggle in the frieze, otherwise purplish red; interior, red-orange. The change in color is a result of firing. Clay: fairly smooth and fine. Pinkish orange. Munsell no. 5 YR 7/6 (reddish yellow).
The fragment is clearly influenced by the decoration of linear kotylai from the PC period (see Cor 12, Cor 22, Cor 23). - Dimensions
