Commentary

Bowl with omphalos.
According to Pellegrini & Sebesta 1965: 16 it is a potsherd, probably the bottom of a bowl. Mancini however registers a bowl with omphalos. According to the photos it's indeed a complete bowl with omphalos IR: 296, pl. LVI, fig. a.
Outside on the bottom characters.
To compare by autopsy: condition (potsherd or complete bowl -> probably change of object type)
