- Description
Wild Goat style (South Ionian). Shoulder fragment, horizontal ridge at the join of neck and shoulder of oinochoe. Red to brown over white slip (paint worn off). Exterior, the shoulder register is framed with a horizontal band above and below: from left to right, goose to right (head and neck preserved); filling ornament (small concentric circle); large concentric circle (possibly forming one of the spirals of a volute pattern of which the other half is not preserved); pendent triangle.
630–610 BC, according to M. Kerschner; and 630–620 BC, in N. Aytaçlar’s opinion (personal communication, Sardis, July 1–2, 2016).
