An Elamite terracotta jar measuring 5 cm in height with a circumference of 19.2 cm and dated ca. 1000 BC. The clay is an orange color with a gray slip that has turned white. Decorations on the jar are a black pattern of bands and hatched lines. The body is quite bulbous growing to a slightly restricted neck and a flaring rim. The jar was excavated in southern Iran and shipping is free. The pedestal base is flat and the jar is in excellent condition with a small amount of earthen encrustation. The Elamite civilization with the capital of Susa was located in the extreme southwest portion of present day Iran.
