Form nearly as the preceding ; cf. Rom. Mitth., XXIIL, Beilage vii. 6.
Ovoid body with flat handle arched over top ; at one end, neck with flat lip as
the preceding ; at the other, a flat vertical square projection like the tail of a bird,
but surmounted by a rude bird's head,
with beak turned towards the vase ; on
either side of the head is a large pellet,
indicating the eyes (?). Buff slip ; black
and red paint. On the handle, two lines
along edge with three cross-bars at inter-
vals ; on the mouth, a circle within a
tangential square of curved lines with
pairs of parallel curved lines each side
(Fig. 396*7 ; cf. op. cit. p. 169, Beilage i. 6).
The bird's head is painted black, the
pellets red. On the " tail" each side, on a
background of black, is a "reserved" lg'39 _ 2 Mpart).
oblong panel in which is a pattern of chequers, alternately black lattice squares
and plain red, within a border of red
below, bands of red and

band of lozenge-chequers (black lattice and plain red) enclosed within red and
black lines (Fig. 3966') ; one panel is partly worn away. Below, black and red
bands. Round the lower part of the body, a linear pattern of parallel lines with
dotted circle below ^-\V/^v$OnV alternating with rows of dotted circles ;
underneath,
as on H 255,1 within concentric circles, black and red.
BOWL OF CONICAL FORM. Ht. 4-=-in. Length, 5l in. Castellani, 1873.
Type as Rom. Mitth., XXIIL, pi. 9, p. 194 ff. Squat body, swelling out below
and contracting towards the top, which has no rim ; on one side a wide shallow
spout projects, the opening being formed by three holes pierced in the side of
the vase. Flat handle with vertical attachment in front, ending above in two
sharp points (one restored), between which is a disc with hole pierced in centre ;
two more holes pierced below. Drab clay and slip ; dull black paint.
On the side opposite the spout is a female figure modelled in the round in
rude style, the arms and legs not indicated ; the hair falls in long thick black
curls, confined with a thick fillet; she wears large disc-shaped earrings, two
