Vessels such as this one were produced in the second half of the first century AD, slightly after the appearance of the classic Sidonian vessels.This flask has an everted rim, a cylindrical neck and an ovoid body resting on a flat base. Two handles are drawn upward from the shoulder and attached with a fold just under the rim. The decoration on the body is divided into three horizontal bands: the top and bottom bands consist of vertical ribbings, and the middle band consists of interlacing scrolls.Such vessels were carelessly executed and were produced for a mass market. - (GF.0042)
