Consulter la cote et le prix de Egyptian Pre-Dynastic Naqada Ii Terracotta Lugged Jar

Description : Ancient Egypt, Pre-Dynastic Period, Naqada II, ca. 3500 to 3200 BCE. An incredible example of early Egyptian pottery, a buffware vessel in an elongated acorn form with a rounded body, a slightly corseted neck, a rolled rim, and a wide mouth. Two tiny lugged handles are high on the sides. The body is painted with tightly packed, wavy lines that radiate around it horizontally and, based on similar painted pottery from the region, likely represent waves on the Nile. Many of the painted symbols on Naqada II vessels have been interpreted by researchers as having sacred meaning, but without a written record there is no way to be certain. A well-preserved example of a very early pottery tradition!
