Beschreibung:
Pottery from the tomb of Hetepheres, 4th dynasty; flat bottomed bowls with recurved rim and tubular spout;
The bowl with flat bottom and recurved rim is one of the most characteristic forms produced by the potter's wheel. The ware used in the Hetep-heres group was mostly red brown ware of fine texture with a smoothed brown surface. The examples found elsewhere were usually of RP ware. The fourteen examples from G 7000 X range from practical vessels of a height of 20 cm. and a diameter of rim of 30 to 34 cm. to small models about 5 cm. high.
