From the beginning of the second millennium B.C., potters began rendering human features on Cypriot vases. During the Cypro-Archaic I-II periods, mold-made and handmade parts of female figures began appearing on the vessels, as with this example. The female figure holds a jug in her right hand, which serves as the spout for the vessel. For a similar jug, see no. 168 in V. Karageorghis, Ancient Art from Cyprus: The Cesnola Collection, New York, 2000.
