CATALOGUE OF LATE CORINTHIAN VASES I

4 1472 a 1471. Hague, Scheurleer Coll. Fig. 45 bis: small
frag, with part of [Herakles and] Kyknos in combat;
behind Kyknos, part of a house. Inscrip-
tion p. 167, no. 64. The drawing recalls
the style of the Amphiaraos painter, but
too little is preserved to admit of a definite
■f 1473 attribution. Naples, from Nola or Capua
(Heydemann 685; photo Sommer 11027
and 11089). R., zigzags; h.p., birds. 1,

A, two-horse chariots (galloping) and
horseman; B, chariots, almost entirely
modern (A also much restored). Under
handles, white sirens. 2, panthers and
goats. The little that remains of the
ancient painting on this vase seems to be

in the manner of the Amphiaraos painter. Inscrip-

CRATERS OF 'CHALCIDIAN SHAPE'
The old shape is remodelled under toreutic influence
in the second quarter of the sixth century. The new
variety is the only one used by Chalcidian potters,
and may therefore be called Chalcidian, but the Chal-
cidians were probably not the first to give it ceramic
form; the earliest of the Corinthian examples (fig.
174 a) is distinctly earlier than any Chalcidian; the
latest Corinthian is nearest to the Chalcidian type.1

1477 Dresden (Frankel, Satyr u. Bacchennamen pi. 1).

1 Note the unusual relation of breadth to height in no.
1477, and the awkward angularity of the upper handle-
piece. No. 1483, on the other hand, is very deep in propor-
tion to its width, as in Chalcidian examples. No Corin-
thian craters have the Chalcidian cushioned foot. Rumpf

Shape fig. 174 a; panther from under handle, pi. 37,

quotes two Attic examples of the shape (A. Anz. 1923/4

vase in Geneva which seems to be an imitation of the
Chalcidian style (A, confronting lions).
