Description
Large basin or tub. Flat base; sharp transition to flaring wall. Faint ridging on exterior wall.
Fabric, firing, and surface description
Granular fabric is inconsistently fired from reddish-brown to light brown with occasional, small, light angular inclusions; occasional medium to large light and dark angular inclusions. All extant surfaces are pale light brown with frequent mica. Turning marks on interior and exterior. Small surface voids, two larger on exterior. Very near standard Southern Argolid fabric.
Preservation comment
One sherd preserves ca. 15% of base and adjacent lower wall. Slight, sparse abrasion; mostly clean breaks; sparse, thin patches of encrustation.
