Small oinochoe mended of fragments and restored. It was found in 1959 at a cemetery located on the south slope of the Acropolis, deposited in Burial I-19 as a burial offering along with three more vessels.

Its base is flat, the body low with concave profile, the mouth trefoil and the handle vertical. Various parts of the outside retain traces of the little pot’s decoration with horizontal bands and vertical short lines.
