Terracotta was a material used throughout Egyptian
history to make various objects, but the range of items
made from Terracotta was considerably expanded during
the Roman Period.
In this example one face of the vase is decorated
with a scene positioned on two superimposed planes, all
framed within a circle of two relief lines which echo
the shape of the vessel.
Unfortunately the provenance of this vase is unknown.
