Description
Bibliography

Intact jug found in 1956 on the south slope of the Acropolis. Its ovoid body rests on a ring-foot, the neck is cylindrical and the outturned rim rounded. The vertical handle adjusts to the shoulder and half-way down the neck. The biggest part of the vessel’s surface bears dull paint that varies from brown-red to black. The body is horizontally ribbed and the shoulder and upper part of the body are obliquely gouged.
