Description

Small hemispherical bowl with a thinned lip of Nubian tradition, late C-Group or Kerma. The clay is fine and burnished on the inside and slipped on the outside. The small irregular black border contrasts with the brick-red body. This object is similar to Kerma vessels often placed in rock-cut tombs of Mirgissa/Iken. This one was placed at the head of a coffin in a multiple grave at Mirgissa/Iken.

Petit bol hémisphérique à la lèvre affinée, de tradition nubienne, Groupe C final ou Kerma. La pâte, fine est polie à l'intérieur, et à l'extérieur sur engobe. Le petit bord noir irrégulier tranche avec la panse rouge brique. Cet objet doit être rapproché des céramiques Kerma parfois déposées dans les tombes rupestres de Mirgissa/Iken. Il était placé à la tête d'un cercueil dans une tombe à sépultures multiples de Mirgissa/Iken.
