context_page_description: The Cycladic Frying pan is a ceramic object from the Bronze Age Cycladic culture of the Kampos type. The frying pan of the Early Cycladic period derives from grave 3 of the small cemetery of Kampos on the Cycladic island of Paros. It was discovered alone in autumn 1924 in the excavations led by Irini Varoucha and was first published in 1926. It is displayed in the Archaeological Museum of Paros with the inventory number 2136. The purpose of Cycladic frying pans is not known.
context_section_description: The frying pan is composed of several sherds; gaps in the handle, side and back have been filled in with plaster. The dark grey-brown / red-brown clay frying pan is 6.15 cm high and 23.8 cm long. At 20.45 cm, the diameter of the rim is slightly smaller than the diameter of the base (21.2 cm). The outer surface and the inner wall of the basin are coated in a dark grey-brown to olive-brown overcoat. The surface of the basin is unevenly smoothed, with low traces of sinter. The surface plate is decorated with several irregular circles, stamped triangle borders and two elongated spiral bands. The edge is looped by a double line, elongated spiral band with a row of triangles above and below. Traces of white paint remain in the indentations.
