Description

Three fragments from a tall, wide cylindrical stone vessel. There is a thin corded decoration horizontally around the body close to the rim. Two fragments are made up of many pieces glued together, though the date of this conservation is unknown. The smaller fragment at one point was glued to the two larger fragments however this has been re-broken so small parts of the fragment is still attached to the glue. The three fragments do fit together.
