Large flat-based beaker.
Another heavily restored beaker, this
example stands 15.2cm
tall and bears stamped decoration.
There are three belts of hatched decoration running around the body of the
vessel and beneath each
belt run three single lines. There is also a double line running just below the
lip.
Note that Kendrick
(5) describes four hatched belts for this
vessel.
This beaker was discovered by Lukis in
September 1847 when he began excavation in the main
chamber on the area hidden beneath the large fallen piece of capstone 2. The
remains of around
7 or 8 vessels were found here and it is thought that all of the beakers from
Dehus were found in this area.
