Small intact jug (juglet) found in 1959 at a cemetery on the south slope of the Acropolis. It comes from Burial XV-13 and was deposited as a burial offering along with seven more pots.

Its base is flat, the body concave in profile, the neck wide, and the mouth trefoil, whereas the vertical handle extends over the rim. The body is adorned with a wavy line and parallel bands. The rest of the pot’s surface is covered with wide black bands.
