Distinctive Features

This is an amphora with a flat ringed base, a sharply curved neck, with a ring in relief at the level of the upper attachment of the handles. The rim is made by folding the clay back on itself, making the exterior face rectilinear or concave. The flat handles carry one, two or three grooves.There can be some slight variation in form (Laubenheimer, 1989 ; Bertucchi, 1992).
