Description | From the neck of a large incasic bottle Rim/neck fragment with a lug on the rim. The fragment has an orange slip (?) and is painted with parallel white lines over a red base. There appears to be a burnished finish on the exterior. The vessel was likely fired in an oxidizing atmosphere with localized reduction as the ceramic paste is orange, buff, and gray in color.
