Description

Imported (?) jar.
Fragments of a large jar with internally thickened S-shaped rim and traces of open-through spout; stump of possible handle low on shoulder. Hard fabric

well-fired; clay grey

with abundant fine white grit; surface dull orange

rough and sandy to touch

wiped inside

more or less smoothed outside. Rim painted solid in dark matt-brown. Shape and fabric suggest an import

perhaps from the Cyclades

but Wilson is not sure of that.
