The incised decoration consists of eight horizontal stripes, separated by simple lines: four bands with transversal opposing zigzag line groups and three bands with two or three rows of strokes. Three transversal line groups at the point of the foot.This small horn-shaped vessel was found at Ayia Paraskevi.
