- Tanım
The shape is sometimes known as a Hermogenean skyphos. Ten fragments of the lip and body. Side A, four pieces join to make about one-quarter of the circumference at the lip, including the central motif of the reserved handle zone (a four-horse chariot), a nonsense inscription, and one of the palmettes near the handle. There is a black painted band near top of reserved handle zone. Side B, another fragment of lip and reserved handle zone, with part of a four-horse chariot team; three joining fragments with a palmette, two letters of a nonsense inscription, and a reserved band below. Also two joining fragments of lower reserved band.
The horse teams: on the larger fragment, side A, the two trace horses have topknots; their heads are lowered. The two pole horses have no topknots. Details of the faces and manes are finely incised. Short added purple strokes appear on the neck and shoulder of the outside horse. Four reins lead to the horses, and a pole-stay leads to the yoke, which has, however, been left out here. The tips of two spears continue into the black-glaze line near the top of the reserved area. They belong to the warrior who walked behind, of whom traces of a helmet, painted in purple, and the incised edge of shield remain. On the smaller fragment, side B, the details are almost precisely the same except that here the yoke has been painted in, and more of the neck of the nearer back horse is shown. The body of the front horse is better preserved here.
The palmettes: grayish purple is used on alternating petals. The two palmette fragments come from opposite ends of one side of the cup near the handles. The inscriptions are made up of nonsense letters which look like sigmas and backwards sigmas. Interior: black glaze.
