ASSIROS: IRON AGE POTTERY

4: Coarse cooking ware

Two new shapes mark the cooking wares of the Iron Age, a jar with a ovoid body, single vertical handle and everted rim (left) and a larger jar with a more globular body, two vertical handles and more or less sharply everted rim (below). The rims of both types carry 'piecrust' decoration made with the fingers or by slashing them with a knife blade.
