介绍（中）	该船体呈球状，有锋利的雕刻，底部平坦，边缘向外。它由浅黄色粘土制成，并在两个寄存器中具有深棕色的彩绘装饰。下部寄存器交替使用几何装饰，即交叉影线和垂直圆圈行，并带有鸟类图像。这些鸟的腿短而弯曲，头大，喙长。上部寄存器的面板下角填充了镶嵌的三角形，可能是为了表示树木繁茂的斜坡。面板每两个太阳。在伊朗西部的Tepe Giyan和Godin Tepe发现了装饰非常相似的船只。在这两个地点，它们都来自坟墓，很难说这些器皿是用于仪式目的还是日常生活的对象（或两者兼而有之）。这艘船以前由考古学家恩斯特·赫茨菲尔德（Ernst Herzfeld）拥有，他在哈马丹购买了它。他写道，他受到这艘船的启发，探索Tepe Giyan，相信它起源于那里。但这个起源无法确认。
介绍（英）	This vessel has a globular body with a sharp carination, a flat base and everted rim. It is made of buff clay, and has dark brown painted decorations in two registers. The lower register alternates geometric decorations, namely crosshatching and vertical rows of circles, with images of birds. The birds have short, bent legs, big heads and long beaks. The upper register has panels whose lower corners are filled with studded triangles, perhaps meant to indicate wooded slopes. The panels each two suns. Vessels with very similar decoration have been found at Tepe Giyan and Godin Tepe in western Iran. At both sites they come from graves, and it is difficult to say whether these vessels served a ritual purpose or were objects of everyday life (or both). This vessel was formerly in the possession of the archaeologist Ernst Herzfeld, who purchased it in Hamadan. He wrote that he was inspired by this vessel to explore Tepe Giyan, in the belief that it originated there. But this origin cannot be confirmed.
