Description
Bibliography

Miniature skyphos found in 1957 at the Sanctuary of the Nymphe. One of the handles is missing.

It is flat based, with slightly rounded walls and horizontal handles. The exterior is covered with brownish-black paint except from a band between the handles that has been left in the colour of the clay. The uneven colouring of the paint is a result of the firing conditions of the vessel.
