Description
Bibliography

Tableware found in 1956 on the south slope of the Acropolis in fragments; it was then mended and restored. Its ring-base is grooved, the deep body conical and the rim high and slightly concave. A plastic ring runs around the body and rim junction. The whole pot is covered in fine, lustrous brown-red gloss and two relief spirals are attached to the rim on the exterior. On the floor, a stamp bears the inscription Α.ΜΑ NVP.

The cup was made in Italy and belongs to the class of the Italian sigillata.
