Description
Bibliography

Black-glazed plate which has been restored. It was found in 1957 in cistern 33 on the south slope of the Acropolis.

Its base is ring-shaped and the body wide and deep with a groove just below the flat overhanging rim and a central nipple on the base’s underside. A small hole, perhaps for the suspension of the plate, has been drilled high on the body wall.
