Spherical stoneware jar with an elongated neck and wide flaring mouth. Two indented bands stretch across the base of the neck and repeat halfway up the neck as it flares outward.<br /> <br /> This is a dark grayish brown, long-necked, high-fired stoneware jar with a wide mouth. Its neck splays diagonally upwards before spreading horizontally just below the mouth and flaring out upwards once again. Two wide, shallow lines forming a raised band mark the boundary where the neck and body meet. A similar type of raised band surrounds the upper-middle part of the neck. The body is widest at its middle part. Its outer surface shows faint traces of having been rendered with a paddled pattern, as well as water smoothing marks in a lateral direction. The base is round and contains clear traces of rotation and water smoothing. The inner surface of the neck shows irregular and rough traces of the supporting anvil (used during the paddling process) in a vertical direction, as well as rotation and water smoothing marks.
