A Beaker is a vessel that is straight sided and fits into one's hands usually to hold liquid for drinking.   By using Anna Shepard's criteria a beaker is an open form where the height is greater than the diameter.  The angle of the sides from the base are between 80 and 90 degrees.  It may have a footed base.  

This category matches Woolley's published ceramic typology Nos. 7; 14-17.  It matches the metal vessel typology Nos. 37-39; 42-44.  It does not match any from his stone vessel typology.
