Context

8 Cycladic Bowl The bowl is complete, with traces of a brown incrustation on the interior and exterior surfaces. The molding of the rim or lip of this bowl is well rounded, and the over-all appearance of the object would seem to place it late in the sequence of Cycladic bowls (Getz-Preziosi, 1987, p. 304, no. 126).
