The article is devoted to the investigation of clay bowls, which are evidence of foreign influence on ancient Egyptian pottery during the Late and Ptolemaic periods. These bowls are characterized by high flaring neck, short shoulders and various shapes of body and base. The investigation has shown that these recipients imitate bowls made of different materials and spread over whole territory of the Achaemenid Empire. Hence, Egyptian bowls are examples of the international Achaemenid style.
