Description

Partially repaired fragment of a greyware dipper bowl, with incised and painted decoration. Several base and rim sherds have been glued together to reconstruct part of the bowl (part a), and a few smaller sherds for a section of the rim (part b). Parts a and b fit together. The incised decoration around the rim depicts a panel with a feline mask (without fangs) and a panel of stepped diagonals to the left. There are traces of red and yellow paint, as well as traces of white residue on the decorative panels.
