"Complete amphora Amathus LRA 1B2. Pear shaped. The rounded lip ends at a ridge, the top of a concave band that descends to a pronounced ledge about 2 cm below the mouth, level with the upper handle junction. The handles are oval in section, with two projections at each extremity of the outer surface and a ledge more or less in the centre marking out two concave bands often of unequal width. The neck is attached y a curve to the shoulder, itself rounded with no clear ridge and the body ends with an
eggshell base. The neck and body of the amphora are worked with horizontal bands, wider around the belly, separated by projections: the potter disliked smooth surfaces and has almost created the look of a bandage wound around the entire body of the amphora. The eggshell base ends with a button set within ten concentric circles. Aside from
the clearly apparent handle joins, one can easily see the join of the lower neck to the shoulder and especially that of the lower body to the foot (fig. 2). The bottom is carpeted with organic remains, probably pitch." (Empereur 2018: 184)
