Description
Bibliography

Black-glazed cup-skyphos, mended from many fragments and restored. It was found in 1956 on the south slope of the Acropolis.

It has a ring foot grooved on the outer, hemispherical body with slightly outturned rim and the horizontal handles rise above the rim. The pot is covered in black glaze except for a scrapped groove above the foot. The underside also remains unglazed and has black concentric bands with a dot in the middle. The decoration inside consists of four stamped linked palmettes encircled by ovolo motif.
