Carthage; Lamps; Glaze; Clay (unfired); undecorated

Notes:

Lamp, wheel-made of reddish clay which contains mica. Good back glaze is chipped off in places, and the base apparently was reserved. Long nozzle with sides slightly converging toward the rounded end. Body has nearly vertical sides. Broad rim slopes slightly toward the large central filling hole. Horizontal band handle broken off. Raised, slightly concave base. Rather heavy ware. Tip of nozzle was chipped while still in use, because the red clay is blackened.
