the same color as the body. Excavations at
Kom el-Dikka have produced 14 fragments
of this form so far. Most of the fragments
are too small to support a reconstruction of
the shape and hence preclude determi-
nation of the beaker type. A few pieces with
such decoration were recorded at Quseir al-
Qadim (Meyer 1992: 81, 88-89). This
form was first identified by Weinberg in the
glasshouse of the agora at Corinth and
dated to the llth-12th centuries
(Weinberg 1952: 87-88, Fig. 14:742, 744;
1975: 136-137). Recently, a 13th or 14th
century AD dating for this type of vessel
has been proposed (Whitehouse 1991:
73-78).
