Bowl2990/46

Modified hemispherical bowl, terracotta with carbon charged grey and black interior, and interior burnished line decoration. The decoration consists of four concentric circles with four radiating triple line whisker motifs, the outer lines of which spiral at the ends 2.5 cm below the rim. There is also a border of fourteen reverse spirals around the interior rim, just below the lip. There is a small area extending inward from a section of the lip where the carbon charged colouring is absent and the terracotta shows through. There are six small chips around the lip, on the interior edge. The exterior of the bowl is not as dark as the interior, and a large area of the terracotta is visible on one side.
