( cm), Ceramics, This object belongs to a group of ceramics known as Tell Minis ware, based on the alleged find spot of a hoard in the eponymous village, located between Hama and Aleppo. However, there is no evidence to suggest that Tell Minis wares were manufactured in that village, and recent analyses suggest that this type of ware was produced in multiple centers in Syria rather than a single workshop or town
