III. SUB-MYCENAEAN FABRICS (C 695-735).

These vases mostly exhibit Mycenaean influence both in form, technique,
and decoration ; they are usually found in the same tombs with the Mycenaean
vases proper (as at Curium and Enkomi), and are probably contemporaneous
with the latest developments of that style. C 732-735 may be regarded rather
as imitations of the "white slip ware :' (C 210-257), in form and decoration but
not in technique.
