The vessel with a funnel-shaped neck is in the form of an anthropomorphic figure sitting on a sitting on a bench or throne (?) and decorated with ear plugs, who has placed both hands on his knees. The helmet probably indicates the status of a warrior status. A comparable vessel (0-600) from the Baessler collection can be found in the Ethnological Museum in Berlin (SMB, inv. no. V A 17707).
