Cypriot Small jug with cut-away spout: EC III-MC I (2100 -1850 BC)
A pleasing, squat, Red Polished III Ware smaller jug very unusual in that both ends of the handle are on the upper body, and the junction of body and neck is the narrowest point. The extended tips of the cut-away spout suggest later EC III or MC I. Complete, good condition
