Fiziksel açıklama
Fragments of four different water jars, unglazed white 'eggshell' earthenware. The shoulder of C.300A-1931 is moulded with an inscription nasta'liq reading 'Ali' (in part) on a dotted ground, presumably inspired by punched grounds on precious metalware. There are traces of the pierced grill at the neck of the filter. C.300-1931 also bears a moulded inscription.
