Distinctive Features

These two forms are based on familiar Spanish prototypes Dressel 9 and Dressel 10 respectively: The earlier Lyon Type 3A has a rim with a pronounced projection while Type 3B, which succeeded 3A, has a distinctive funnel rim. Both have ovoid bodies and hollow spikes (Desbat, 2003).

Origin

Lyon. Type 3A was made at the workshop of La Muette (Desbat, 1987; 2003). Chemical analysis has shown that both types have a local source (Becker, 1986).
