8th century
Height 20.3 cm, mouth diameter 11.4 cm, body diameter 16.6 x 33.4 cm
 In the 8th century, this horizontal vase had a long, narrow, bullet-shaped body with flattened ends. The molding was done by winding up the clay and latticework, and the lid was adjusted by scraping. The neck of the mouth is thick and upright, and the rim of the mouth is often slightly off-center. The clay is white and fine, and the firing is very good, with a yellowish green natural glaze on the shoulder.
