| An interesting piece of pottery from northwestern Croatia. Made on a foot potter's wheel, unglazed, decorated by discreet concentric circles. It was used for storing grained food or flax i.e. hemp seed. In terms of design, shape, and function, it is analogous to late La Tcne vessels characteristic of Celtic finds from the last two centuries BC, distributed along the western edge of the Pannonian valley.
