Distinctive Features

The general form has a long cylindrical body with two small handles on the side and a flaring rim. Maña (1951) distinguished two types, labelled C1 and C2 but van der Werff (1978) has an everted rim but with a near vertical outer face, and a V-shaped base terminated by less pronounced hollow spike. This type corresponds to the Martin-Kilcher (1999) form B and to the Ramón (1995) Type T-7.2.
