This gold pitcher was found in a tomb at Mahmatlar, approximately 60 miles east of Alacahoyuk. It is decorated with lozenges and swastikas. Similar vessels were found at Alacahoyuk.
Among the wealth of grave goods recovered from the royal tombs at Alacahoyuk were small golden pitchers paired with a long-stemmed goblet. The gold vessels are reminiscent of those discovered in the Royal Cemetery of Ur, although the forms are quite different. At Alacahoyuk, the vessel of choice for pouring was a pitcher instead of a trough-spouted bowl; and for drinking, a long-stemmed goblet instead of a conical cup.
