Description
Bibliography

Single-nozzle lamp unearthed during the excavations conducted on the Acropolis.

It is flat-bottomed with low and rounded walls. The rim is plain and the reservoir opening very wide. The nozzle is relatively short and the wick-hole almond shaped. Opposite the nozzle are preserved traces of the horizontal band handle. Glazing that varies from red to dark brown covers various parts of the lamp and the upper part of the body walls is decorated with painted dots.
