Cooking pot, Cooking pot of bronze. The hull has a casting seam near the ears and is ball-shaped, but slightly sagged. It has a thickening at the bottom, which was created as a result of the casting technique. This is formed by a round pouring hole with two pouring ribs placed twice in a radius. The transition from trunk to neck is smooth. The lip edge has a relatively sharp edge at the top and extends obliquely outwards. The pot stands on three six-sided legs, the inner side of which takes up the entire width. These seem to be turned on later. They end in seven-sided feet, the inner side of which also occupies the entire width. The ears lying in line with each other are probably turned on later. They are rounded sharp-angled and versatile in cross-section. On the outside they have a vague ornament consisting of a winding branch with folded back leaves. At the start of one of the ears there is a piece of iron that originally belonged to the handle., anonymous, Northern Netherlands, 1200 - 1300, bronze (metal), founding, h 33.5 cm × w 32.5 cm × d 30.5 cm
