Item Details
Description
**Originally Listed At $350**

Ancient Near East / Ancient Mediterranean, Amlash culture, ca. 1400 to 1000 BCE. An interesting pottery vessel with a spool shaped form, a broad lip and notched interior rim, perhaps for funneling liquid, perhaps for a funerary vessel. Amlash vessels were buried in large megalithic tombs, built by part of the Marlik culture. Despite its proximity to the large Mesopotamian cultures, the geographical barrier of the high Zagros and Elburz Mountains kept it relatively isolated and a very unique ceramic tradition developed there. Size: 7.25" Diameter x 3.25" H (18.4 cm x 8.3 cm)

Provenance: private Greenwood Village, Colorado, USA collection, via inheritance; Leota Furlong Agett Persian Pottery collection, acquired in Tehran, Iran in the early 1960s
