Hathor Jar
The Hathor Jar is a ceramic vessel with a distinctive shape. The jar has a narrow, rounded bottom that widens slightly towards the middle and then tapers up to a wide mouth. The body of the jar is primarily reddish-brown in color, with horizontal stripes of blue and reddish-brown around the middle section. A relief of a woman's face is on the upper portion of the jar; she appears to be wearing a headband or a crown. The background of the image is dark grey.
