Description: | Black topped red-ware vessel. 13.5cm high. 6cm diameter at rim. Such pots date to the Predynastic Naqada II Period (3500-3100BC). Black topped red ware is a fine red pottery with blackened rim. How such vessels were decorated has been much debated. (See Hendrickx, S., Friedman, R. and Loyens, F. 2000.
