Geologic Age:
20th century
Notes:
Small circular recast aluminum pot with lid. The body of the pot sits on three legs and has two handles on either side. The lid is far more roughly shaped than the body and has a thin angular piece of metal as the lid handle. The pot is unpolished, relatively rough, and bears no marks of manufacture. On the underside it is possible to see where the casting was cut. It was likely made in West Africa.
