Description
Bibliography

Miniature hydria found almost intact in 1957 at the Sanctuary of the Nymphe. The neck is decorated with a zigzag line and leaf shaped motifs, the body with a horizontal band and the upper part of one of the handles with irregular brushstrokes. The decoration is all rendered with brown colour, uneven in parts due to the firing conditions of the vessel.
