13th century
Height 28.9 cm, mouth diameter 12.1 cm, body diameter 20.6 cm, bottom diameter 9.5 cm
 This is an archaic four-lobed jar with a large outwardly bowed oral section and a stout shoulder.
 The height is high in relation to the body diameter, and the base is small. The base is also high. It is made of a gray base with a ring-formed base and a surface adjustment on the lower half. The ash glaze was applied with a brush and the glaze layer was thin and well fused, but it showed an unstable glaze tone with a strong flow. It belongs to the category of early four-lobed jars, and the face remains unglazed.
