PLATE XCVIII

     Bowl of conical form v/ith rounded sides and pointed base ;
slightly contracted at the mouth, which is mounted with a
metal band. The flow of the glaze is from base to mouth, and
the point of the base, where the covering is thin, discloses a
body of light grey colour. The glaze inside and out is thick
and of a dark olive-brown colour, streaked with brown-black.
The form of this bowl is comparable with that illustrated on
