Description
Alabastron with rounded base. Surface worn away diagonal turning bands seem visible; interior shows distinct, quite narrow turning bands.

Ten joining sherds preserve ca. 80% of body up to transition to narrowing below rim. Extensive, moderate to severe erosion and abrasion so that almost no original surface survives; worn breaks. Weathering from long marine submersion.
