Fragments of a Small Bowl or Kyathos

about 625 B.C.
Three fragments join to form floor and side of small bowl or kyathos. Two additional fragments of rim do not join. Rim is turned slightly outward and ends in sharp carination; floor is very shallow with low circular base. Just above carination, rim is ornamented with series of incised double chevrons (ten are complete; portions of an eleventh remain). Deep grooves radiate from base to carination. These are visible on interior where base is marked by raised concentric circles.
