There can be no doubt that the following, as a group,
are later than the preceding nos. 68-75 5 tney are,
however, inseparable from the main body of tran-
sitional vases. The most striking innovations are:
the principle of decorating the vase with a single
figure or a single group—very rare formerly (nos.
19-22); the nascent predilection for incised rosettes;
the introduction of new, typically Corinthian motives
(Artemis, Typhon, lions grouped about hare,sphinxes
about snake, &c.: for the latter, cf. no. 58).
