RecordPot< 1 of 1 > Back from Qurneh, Egypt
PotThis ceramic pot is among a number of grave goods placed in the rich burial of a woman and child at Qurneh in Egypt, sometime in the 17th Dynasty. The woman may have been a queen. The squat, burnished red pot has an out-turned rim, short neck and slightly pointed base. The burial is exceptionally wealthy for this period both in terms of the quantity of pots and the variety of styles and materials. Most of the pottery is typically Egyptian, and therefore presumably locally made, but some imported pots were also included. The pottery generally consists of very finely made examples.
