Seven-cup Offering Vessel (1750-1550 BC) Nahariyyah.

Height 0.065 m. diam. 0.10 m. pottery

One of the many pottery vessels, a bowl containing seven small cups, found on and near the high-place of Nahariyyah. The cups may have held some liquid offerings-food, or precious oils and perfumes. Seven-wick pottery lamps found with them suggest that the number had a symbolical significance at this time, in this part of the world.
