Description
Bibliography

Single-nozzle lamp unearthed during the Acropolis excavation campaigns.

It is flat-bottomed and the floor has a conical protrusion. The upper body walls slant slightly inwards, the wide rim is flat and overhanging. The nozzle is relatively short and the wick-hole big. Black-glazing covers the nozzle, the rim as well as the inside whereas brownish-red paint has been applied on the outside vertical walls.
