Bottles
This category includes vessels that have a tall neck that is narrower than the body.
A bottle is a vessel that has a neck that is narrower than the body, it is usually used for the storage or transport of liquids. By using Anna Shepard's criteria a bottle is described as a closed form, where the height is greater than the diameter. The angle of the sides from the base are between 30 and 60 degrees, it has a restricted neck, and usually has a round or oblong body.
This category matches Woolley's published ceramic typology no. 49a-53. None of his metal or stone vessel typologies meet these criteria
