A NEOLITHIC POTTERY 'ZEBU' VESSEL, INDUS VALLEY CIVILIZATION, KULLI CULTURE, CIRCA 2300 BCScientific Analysis Report: A thermoluminescence analysis report issued by QED Laboratoire, Marseille, on 24 March 2015, reference no. QED1512/FI-0202, sets the firing date of two samples to approx. 2300 BC, consistent with the dating above. A copy of the report accompanies this lot.Published: 1. Nindowari. The Kulli Culture, Centre de Recherches Archéologiques Indus- Balouchistan, Asie centrale et orientale. CNRS-Musée Guimet, Paris, fig. 23.3.2. Martin Doustar, Brussels, website, 2026 (priced at EUR 12,000).Balochistan, Nindowari. Well potted with an ovoid body rising to a high angled shoulder surmounted by a short waisted neck with everted rim, the body painted in dark brownish-black slip with a continuous frieze of humped zebu cattle in profile, shown with exaggerated horns and elongated bodies, interspersed with rosette motifs and geometric bands to the lower register and neck.Provenance: Stefaan Grusenmeyer, Brussels, and thence by descent to Karim Grusenmeyer, Ghent, Brussels. Martin Doustar, Brussels, acquired from the above. Stefaan Grusenmeyer was a Belgian art dealer initially based in Ghent. In 1983, he opened a gallery in Brussels, which his son Karim took over in 2000. The gallery specializes in sculpture, archaeology, jewelry, and decorative arts from Southeast Asia, China, and India. Martin Doustar is a Brussels-based art dealer and collector whose career spans more than two decades. He began his professional journey in the early 2000s with a focus on Modern Art, developing a keen interest in the ways early twentieth-century artists were influenced by 'primitive' art from Africa and Oceania. Over time, his connoisseurship expanded into archaeological and ethnographic fields, with particular expertise in the ancient arts of the Pacific, Africa, and pre-Columbian America, while also encompassing Asian material culture and modern masterpieces. He is the author of numerous scholarly catalogues and has organized thematic exhibitions on a wide range of subjects.Condition: Good condition with expected wear and firing irregularities, signs of burial, encrustations, few chips, tiny nicks, minor losses to slip. Small holes from sample taking.Weight: 1,750 gDimensions: Height 22 cmThe prehistoric cultures of Balochistan occupy a foundational place in the early history of South Asia and provide important insight into the development of settled civilization before the rise of the Indus Valley Civilization. Among the most significant archaeological traditions in the region are Mehrgarh, the painted ceramics known as Nal Ware, and the later Kulli Culture, each representing successive stages in the social and artistic evolution of prehistoric communities.Kulli Culture, which is on the strategic location for the Indus Valley Civilization, covers a large area in Baluchistan. Some of the important Kulli sites are Kulli (Kolwa), Nindowari (Wadd), Mehi (Awaran), Edith Shahr and Niai Buthi (Las Bela), etc. Nonetheless, Baluchistan is still considered an unexplored zone. Many cultures were born here and died on this land as well and each culture has been represented on many sites.The Indus Valley Civilization was a Bronze Age culture in the northwestern regions of South Asia, lasting from 3300 BC to 1300 BC, and in its mature form from 2600 BC to 1900 BC. Together with ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, it was one of three early civilizations of the Near East and South Asia, and of the three, the most widespread. Its sites spanned an area from northeast Afghanistan and much of Pakistan to western and northwestern India. The civilization flourished both in the alluvial plain of the Indus River, which flows through the length of Pakistan and along a system of perennial monsoon-fed rivers that once coursed in the vicinity of the Ghaggar-Hakra, a seasonal river in northwest India and eastern Pakistan.Zebu cattle are thought to be derived from the Indian bos primigenius namadicus, a subspecies of the aurochs. Wild Asian aurochs disappeared during the time of the Indus Valley Civilization from their range in the Indus River basin and other parts of the South Asian region possibly due to interbreeding with domestic zebu and the resultant fragmentation of wild populations due to loss of habitat. Believed to have first been bred in northwestern South Asia, between 7000 and 6000 BC, they are understood to have been dispersed by 4000 BC and spread across much of South Asia by 2000 BC.Literature comparison: Compare a closely related painted pottery jar, Balochistan, dated 2200-2000 BC, in the Ancient Orient Museum, Tokyo. Compare a related small carinated jar, Baluchistan, 4th-3rd millennium BC, exhibited in National Museum of Oriental Art-Giuseppe Tucci, Rome, Living Symbols: The Power of Images in the Prehistoric Pottery of Pakistan, 25 June-21 September 2014, cat. no. 47.Auction result comparison: Type: Closely related Auction: Christie's Amsterdam, 21 May 2003, lot 601 Price: EUR 7,170 or approx. EUR 12,000 adjusted for inflation at the time of writing : An Indus Valley pottery jar and a cup, 2300-2000 BC and 3300-3000 BC Expert remark: Compare the closely related decoration and zebu motif.
