THE LATE PROTOCORINTHIAN ORIENTALIZING STYLE 27

Rhodian fragment.

15 and 16; aryballos as fig. 8 a; 'subgeometric' aryballoi with running
dogs; two early Transitional olpai nos. 150 and 151; pyxides nos. 55
and 56; various Italian vases.
*Formello, near Veii (N.S. 1882, 291 ff., esp. 296). The tomb in which the
Chigi vase (no. 39) was found. The tomb has been described, but never
properly published. Handles of similar olpai were found, also a pointed
aryballos with scale decoration (cf. fig. 8 a).
*Knossos: a tomb excavated by myself in 1927. This tomb is worth mentioning
here although it had been in use for many generations. The olpe no. 42
was found in fragments at the outermost end of the dromos, and was
therefore probably one of the latest vases to be put in the dromos (the
dromos was used, as elsewhere, after the tomb was filled). The tomb
contained other, earlier, Protocorinthian vases,1 but nothing Corinthian.
The tomb at Caere is an important acquisition to our evidence for the
chronology of this period, for the furniture was far richer than in the Greek
graves, and Mengarelli expressly states that the chamber in which the vases
were found had not been used more than once. The absence of Corinthian
vases in such a case is therefore obviously a fact of no little interest.
