Handmade ceramic bowl with a polished red exterior and a shiny black interior and mouth. The rim has incised hatched lines. The mouth of the bowl is egg-shaped rather than circular. The excavator interpreted the shape being like that of a boat. It is quite similar to so-called ‘ladle pots’ made by A-Group and Pan-grave cultures. Marked in black ink with the burial number “30 K'06 b” and John Garstang’s collection number “G 327 N”. From Liverpool University Institute of Archaeology excavations at Kostamneh, 1906. 

CONDITION NOTE 1998: Surface chipped, pitted, worn, surface dirt, discoloured.
