This vessel was found within a corridor tomb, and are most probably funerary vessels. This type of vessel was often referred to locally as floeros because of its resemblance to flower vases. The main body is supported by three hollow conical legs, at the top of which are two slits, and contain rattles. Surmounting the legs are appliquéd male heads. These heads are modeled tilting backwards with their elaborate headdresses forming handles. The vessel is painted with red slip, but the legs are left matte to increase their sense of realism.
