Early Bronze Age pottery beaker
Much restored long-necked beaker of relatively coarse buff-grey ware with small grits. The neck is slightly convex. The decoration consists of combed lines arranged in two lozenge-filled patterns on the neck and upper part of the body. On the lower part of the body there are three zones of decoration, the uppermost of incomplete combed lines, the middle zone of closely spaced vertical lines and, towards the base, a third zone of pendant triangles.
