Description

The vessel was found in a Classic Kerma burial, placed under the bed of the deceased, near the head, together with a set of offerings. It was wheel-thrown and made from a fine calcareous clay containing numerous ground minerals. It was polished and covered with a light, pink slip. The body is ovoid-shaped, the mouth is wide and edged by a small convex lip.

Ce vase était placé parmi un lot d'offrandes, sous le lit, à la tête du mort, dans une tombe du Kerma Classique. Il est tourné en argile calcaire, fine, contenant de nombreux minéraux broyés, et lissée et couverte d'un léger engobe rosé. La panse est ovoïde, l'ouverture est large et bordée d'une petite lèvre convexe.
