Jar
Not on view
This jar has a flat base, squat body, a carinated shoulder, and everted rim. It is made of buff clay, and has dark brown painted geometric decorations in two registers. Vessels with similar shapes and decoration have been found at Tepe Giyan and Godin Tepe in western Iran. At both sites they come from graves, and it is difficult to say whether these vessels served a ritual purpose or were objects of everyday life (or both).
