The Global Egyptian Museum

Sherd of a carinated bowl with a wide orifice, made of fine black clay. The oxidised exterior surface is brownish-red. The interior surface and outer rim are black. The surfaces have been very heavily burnished. The decoration, which is present only under the lip, is also very carefully executed. A band of diamonds bordered by hatching was impressed with a roller stamp and is emphasised by a dotted line impressed with a serrated roller. A very good quality vessel that is also typical Old Kerma.

Tesson d'un bol caréné à large ouverture, en pate très fine noire. L'extérieur est oxydé brun rouge. Le bord et l'intérieur sont noirs. Le polissage des surfaces est intense. Le décor est également soigné et cantonné sous la lèvre, une bande de losanges bordés de hachures, le tout imprimé avec une molette lisse et souligné d'une ligne impimée à la molette dentée. Cette production est de très belle qualité et également caractéristique du Kerma Ancien.
