Description
Bibliography

Bowl pieced together from many fragments and restored. It was found in 2002 during the Makrygiannis plot excavation, in the area of the kilns ΝΜΑ 24 and ΝΜΑ 25.

Almost half of the vessel without the base has survived. The body has an angular contour and widens toward the top, while the rim is straight. The entire vessel is covered with a slip ranging from light brown to yellow colour and the outer surface is slightly burnished. The rim is decorated with a band of thin, brown, vertical and intersecting lines.
