י כיסה

כיסתא means "fodder, forage, hay" in both Jewish Aramaic and Syriac. If read as such, this jar probably contained animal food or dried food for humans. On the other hand, כוסתא is a liquid measure in Jewish Aramaic and Syriac. If read as such, the bar proceeding כוסה probably represent a numeral. [Gaia please check.]
