THE POTTERY OF CYPRUS.

(broken off under handle and in front) ; below are vertical bands of pattern
towards the base, alternately lattice-patterns as above and narrower ladder-like
bands ; these are crossed by plain lines, and on the front there is a diagonal line
of dots on each side of the ladder-pattern.

C 221. BOWL, similar. Form 30. Ht. 4I in. Diam. 6-^ in. Similarly acquired (tomb 10).

White slip with dark brown paint turning to a lighter tone below. Handle
as last. Round the rim (except under handle), a band of lattice-pattern ; below,
bands of connected squares and lattice-patterns on each side of the bowl;
on the front and under the handle are vertical bands of lattice-pattern with
rows of dashes and short ladder-patterns between ; round
the rest of the body the lattice and ladder patterns are
repeated.

C 222. BOWL, similar. Form 30. Ht. 4! in. Diam. 7| in. Similarly

acquired (tomb 66). Excavations in Cyprus, p. 35, fig. 63.

Buff slip with dull black paint. Repaired from frag-
ments (a piece wanting). Patterns exactly as last, except
that in the second horizontal band the lines joining the
squares arc omitted. Fig. u = c:

C 223. BOWL, similar, but shallower. Form 30. Ht. 3I in. Diam. "]\ in. Similarly acquired

(tomb 22).

White slip with dark brown paint. Round the rim, lattice-pattern, from

which depend vertical bands of lattice and ladder pattern alternately, with

occasional lines of dashes as on C 221, the ladder patterns being shorter than
the others.

C 224. BOWL. Form 30. Ht. 4 in. Diam. 7I in. Similarly acquired (tomb 69). Excavations

in Cyprus, p. 40, tig. 68.

Handle of usual type. White slip ; dark brown paint, with some details
in lighter brown or red. Repaired from fragments and partly restored. On
the handle, short parallel strokes ; round the rim a band
of straight and wavy lines, the latter in light brown. On
the bod)- in front, between groups of vertical lines, a pattern
composed of two vertical wavy lines with dots down each
side (cf. C 215), crossed by three parallel horizontal lines,
on which rest two vertical bands of lattice-pattern ; on
either side of this are similar pairs of wavy lines with
dots, repeated, and beyond, groups of three parallel lines of varying length.

C 225. BOWL, as last. Form 30. Ht.4jin. Diam. 7 J in. Similarly acquired (tomb uncertain).

Handle lower down than on last. Paint varying from dark brown to red.
Made up from fragments. Patterns exactly as last, except that the horizontal
lines on the body do not occur on the front, but under the handle.
