Object Description

A very fine terracotta pot from the Holy Land. The body of the vessel is globular in shape and tapers to a flat circular base. The pot slightly narrows at the neck before flaring out to a slightly everted rim. Two handles have been attached and curve from below the rim to the shoulders. The upper body is enriched with a cluster of small protrusions from where the clay has been pinched. The decoration features to both the front and back and also under the handles. The rim has some chips and some dark discolouration on one side.

Date: Circa 1550-1200 BC

Object Condition

Good condition. Chips to the rim, minor surface scratches consistent with age.
