Pottery items like these are usually found broken or incomplete when unearthed during archaeological digs.
The child was curious about what was inside the jar, which dates back to 2200-1500 BC.
His father, Alex, said the child was curious about what was inside and pulled the jar slightly.
The artifact then fell and smashed into pieces, leaving the father in shock.
