Description
Bibliography

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

Its foot is disc-shaped and the floor has a conical protrusion. The rounded body wall is low and the plain rim narrow. The short nozzle retains fire traces and opposite it are preserved parts of the horizontal loop handle. Orange slip covers the lamp whereas black lustrous glazing has been used for the inside and the nozzle. A narrow black band runs around the body.
