v1.c16.s2.7

Fabric C includes vessels turned on the fast wheel in a very careful manner and betray sophistication. They are made of a very fine clay and slipped smoothly in shades of red and plum or purple-red. The pots—the globular and ovoid vase, straight-sided bowl, dish, and dish-on-stand—are painted essentially in black in designs usually geometric but sometimes combined with naturalistic motifs.
