Spanish term

asiento (de una tapadera)

Spanish to English Social Sciences Archaeology Ceramics in the Alhambra
Ceramic items found on an excavation of the Alhambra. I have found references to the 'seat of the lid' but am wondering if there is a less literal translation for this?

Por un lado, las de borde entrante o plano y escotadura interna para el ***asiento*** de una tapadera. Por otro lado, las de grosor notablemente mayor que las anteriores y con borde entrante

Many thanks!

the seating of the lid

It sounds like the lid is made to lock into place on a flange.


You could also go with "for the closure of the lid."
Example sentence:

Those with an internal slot for the "seating of the lid."
