(/;) On the r. a bearded man in long chiton and himation stands to I.,
holding upright in his r. a sceptre : he is confronted by a bearded man in an
himation, carrying a staff along his 1. arm, who raises his r. as if addressing
him ; between them is a woman en face, in a long chiton dotted with trefoils, a
mantle, and fillet, who looks at the first, holding up to him in her 1. a phiale : in
her r., hanging at her side, is an oinochoe, from which wine is flowing towards
the spectator. On the 1. a woman in long chiton and mantle stands en face,
but looking to r., her r. hand resting on her breast beneath her mantle.

D'Hancarville, iv, pi. 74. This appears to be by the same hand as No. E 286. Thinned
reddish brown for hair of slinger, and on front and back of crest of both helmets. The cord of
the sling is drawn as a thin black line over the red and black alike. Below each side, a strip
of zigzags.
(a) A slinger. A beardless warrior in helmet with curved cheek-pieces,
short undergirt chiton, stands en face, but head turned to r., preparing to sling ;
his 1. is extended in front, holding the missile and one end, the other end is raised
in his r. above his r. shoulder. His feet are carelessly drawn. On 1. are two
spears upright, point upwards.
(/;) Warrior apparently attacking the last figure. He strides to 1.,
brandishing spear and covering body with shield (device, a hare in silhouette
to 1. running, on a thin black line) : he wears a helmet with cheek-pieces raised,
decorated with a lizard in silhouette, cuirass, and short chiton embroidered
with stars and a border.

E 286. HIGH SHOULDERED AMPHORA. Old No. 87S. Ht. 125 in. Nola. Durand
Coll. no. 255. Brilliant varnish and colour. Fine graceful style. Apparently by the same hand
as E 285. The peculiar treatment of the helmet is identical in both. Light brown used for
hair, beard, markings on crest of helmet, and markings on skin and cap in b. Sketch marks
very plain. The upper surface of the lip of this and the preceding vase left red.
(a) Warrior moving to 1,, looking back, spear carried in r. over shoulder,
shield (device, bull in silhouette charging- on thin black ground-line to 1.) on 1.
arm covering body. He is beardless, and has wavy hair falling on shoulders
and in front of car, short chiton, and chlamys (?). His helmet has nasal, cheek-
pieces raised and decorated with a lizard in black silhouette.
