    DescriptionResist paint technique as well as the shape of the vessel are typical of this period. Small appliques, each bearing three punctate dots, surround the rim and appear on the base of the urn. A combination of these dots appears on the shoulders of the vessel. A residue of a bright yellow post-fired paint frames each applique.
