| Title: | Hydria: Linear(?) | |
| Category: | Pottery | |
| Description: | Mycenaean hydria with only one horizontal handle and the vertical handle. Fragmentary. Single horizontal red bands at base of neck, above and below horizontal handle. Coarse buff clay fired pink in spots. ADDENDA 2018: Thirteen sherds mended into the complete profile of a small hydria, with flaring rounded rim with hollowed lip, a vertical, oval-section handle, only one, horizontal round-section handle, and a flat raised base. The exterior decoration consists of a medium lip-band, a medium band at the junction of the neck and shoulder, a medium band running below the vertical handle and above the horizontal handle, three(?) medium bands running below the horizontal handle, and a medium band at the junction of the band and the body. The base of the handle is outlined with a medium band, but the exterior of the handle is too worn to make out any decoration. The vessel shows fairly extreme wear on the lower body and on the vertical handle. This would not be inconsistent with regular lowering into water with a rope. There are no traces of burning.
