Dāniya. Rabal. El Fortí. Manuel Muñoz Street

A truncated cone-shaped kettle with a carinated rim and four flattened pinch-shaped mamelons: two with digitations and two with punch marks. Cylindrical neck. Convex base. Brown glaze on the inside and greenish and brownish tones on the upper third of the outside.

The discovery of this piece inside a well among Islamic materials from the first half of the 13th century, in the phase of abandonment of an alhóndiga (funduq), it can be ascribed to this period. The tonality of the glazed cover and the type are reminiscent of Christian examples from the 13th-14th century.

Chronology. First half of the 13th century.

Dimensions. Rim diameter: 15.50 cm. Maximum diameter: 22.20 cm. Height: 22.80 cm.
