This “thistle” shape cup has a compressed spherical body, a flared cylindrical neck, an unglazed short cylindrical foot and an unglazed flat circular base. The earthenware fabric is a pinkish buff. Slipware cups of similar shape were recovered from the same site (see fig. 47). A “mottled ware” triple fuddling cup is recorded, formed by conjoined vessels of the same shape. |
