Physical DescriptionA very small jar with a globular body, raised on a continuous foot with a wide mouth with a slighly rolled rim. There are two small lug handles right at the rim of the mouth. The clay is a warm red, suggesting that the jar is of earthenware rather than stoneware, with a white glaze that covers all but the lower part of the jar.
