Cylindrical neck flares slightly up to plain, outwardly thickened rim with rounded lip. Handle attached at lower rim descends in arc to shoulder; oval to rectangular in section with wide groove on outer face.
Fabric, firing, and surface description
SCA Fabric 1, so far as it can be observed through encrustatiojn: golden brown with a tinge of red; hard, medium fine; smooth to slightly granular break; frequent golden mica and other sparkles (silvery? quartzite?); infrequent white particles (calcareous), and varied tiny red and gray bits. Surface smoothed. Eastern Aegean-western Asia Minor.
Preservation comment
One sherd preserves 28% of rim, upper neck, and upper attachment of one handle. Slight, sparse abrasion; worn breaks; thick coat of encrustation covers almost entire surface.
