    Has anyone thought of the possibility that it could be a funerary urn containing human or animal remains?

    This is so cool. I can't find anything like it published anywhere...! I found this photo of a Medieval Mongolian incendiary ceramic bomb. Same wheel-thrown conical shape with hand-made decorations, but it is not even 5" tall! http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&biw=1008&bih=587&gbv=2&tbm=isch&tbnid=42vBbKxPc6f87M:&imgrefurl=http://www.ancienttouch.com/medieval%2520arms.htm&docid=1M7ODM_Agb1VvM&imgurl=http://www.ancienttouch.com/1310.jpg&w=635&h=576&ei=PGy9T-bUFuaeiQKdvrGmDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=253&vpy=129&dur=615&hovh=214&hovw=236&tx=119&ty=131&sig=100681976264796957757&page=1&tbnh=121&tbnw=123&start=0&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:0,i:76
