What is it?


It's a flask for liquids.  A canteen / water bottle.




Who made it?

A Canaanite.

When?

About 3700 years ago, or maybe a bit less.

One side was smashed, accidentally, but can be repaired.

Two series of three concentric brown circles.

That's all the details at present.

I saw it two months ago with Eve Harow, friend and fellow lover-of the-Land,and we were stupendisized.
