Description:   A large jug with oval body, high neck, rolled rim, and one heavy round handle set vertically. It is almost identical in shape with Z348 and Z355 from Tomb XXXIII. In all three of these examples the upper end of the handle at the point of attachment shows a slight but awkward projection above the level of the rim itself; this is a feature which these jugs share with those from the Potter's Shop.
