Basin, c. 3000 BCE, 5 x 12 5/8 x 12 5/8 in. (12.7 x 32.07 x 32.07 cm), Earthenware with painted designs and burnished surface, China, 31st-30th century BCE, The form of this thin-walled, hand-built basin follows a Banpo type shape of the Yangshao culture that was already in use nearly a thousand years before this vessel was made. The wide rounded bowl has a fairly small flat base and an everted rim with a broad, rounded rim flange. Typical of much Majiayao ware, it is made of yellowish-brown earthenware, extensively painted in overall concentric and spiral patterns.
