　This is an unusual decorated jar with a base and a rounded rim, with three small jars and a deer’s head as decoration. Deer, along with horses and dogs, were the most common animals used to decorate Sue ware. The large outward curvature of its neck is also shown in Figure 53, and is one of the motifs that were widely produced in the Kinai region around the beginning of the 6th century.
