Amphoriskos
6th–4th century B.C.
Core-formed, black amphoriskos decorated with a white thread around the edge of the mouth and a small thread on the knob foot. Two handles, one on either side of the neck, extend from below the mouth and attach at the shoulder. The vessel is in good condition with no cracks or breaks. There are very few nicks and scratches.
