Vertical handle and one horizontal handle missing.
Flaring rim, false ring foot.
The flaring rim, heavy body proportions and rudimentary foot are early features, but this piece does not correspond closely to any in the Agora series; already by the later 7th century, cooking-ware hydriai are better made and more developed, closer to 1590; cf. P 23461 R 8:2 Agora, VIII, pl. 12, 219.
