 This is another water jar with a common lid and has a beautifully varied fired surface. The bottom of the body shows traces of spatula marks, and there are spatula marks under the mouth as well. Ash has fallen from the mouth to one side of the body, and the rest of the body is reddish brown. The clay surface is slightly burnished. The inside of the container is engraved with the inscription “Roku” in large letters, and a kiln mark is stamped on the front of the lid.
 The above water jars may all be similar in style, but some of them have a slightly older style while others are more varied. This may indicate not only a difference in the potter, but also a difference in time.
