X. Pottery.

Type Illi = *1513,90 (<2 is on op-
posite side).
2 = *1513, 88, 89.
3 = *1514,30,46; *i58d, 11.
Smooth, red painted, brown
ware. This jar is still suitable for
grain; but is not so strong as the
predynastic prototype. See Petrie,
Abydos I, Tomb M 14 on Pl. 39 and
Pl. 33, 127—139 j Abydos II, 44, 96.
Exactly the same form occurs


in the late predynastic period (Petrie L 46,47, and at el-

Ahaiwah). The form occurs in 4th—dth dynasty tombs at Naga-ed-Der and Gizeh. Similar forms

are found in later tombs (12 th to 18 th).

2 = id29, x-2; *1513,71; *3014? 3; *3022, 7. * \ ( \
Smooth hard, fine-grained reddish brown ware, a manifest I
attempt to reproduce the hard pink or white ware of the late \ / \ /
predynastic period. The type is a degeneration of the prototype, \ \ /
Petrie L 3d, but still a jar suitable for grain and possibly liquids also1. \
See Petrie, R. T. 7, Pl. 40, 17,26,27.
168. Type IV, I : IO.
Exactly the same type occurs in the late predynastic period
but, as said above, of better material (Petrie L 3d) and accompanied by greater variety of
form. In the Cheops tombs at Gizeh, especially in the tomb of the Prince
we found a jar resembling this type in form and material. The type seems, however to
have merged in type v, although in cem. 1500 and cem. 3000 both types occur side by side
in the same tomb (see idi4, 3022 etc.).

1 It is interesting to note that the European sugar factories use the water jar, called gerra or ballas, for transporting cane syrup,
from the presses to the refinery.
