Tanım
Six fragments from a large alabastron, four joined. Rooster facing to right. Portions of the chest, neck, outstretched wing, and feet remain. Added red on the chest of the rooster. Parallel incisions are used on the neck. Wide parallel incisions create both the wing feathers and the wing bar. Incised petal-shaped rosettes in the field. Radiating tongues appear on the underside of the alabastron. Portions of four tongues remain. Glaze: black, shiny, and crackled in places. Clay: hard, smooth, and fine with both faceted and smooth breaks. Yellow-buff. Munsell no. 10 YR 7/4 (very pale brown). The style is close to that of the Erlenmeyer Painter. D. A. Amyx agrees (private correspondence, 29 January 1986), saying "it does recall the Erlenmeyer Painter, but is less gaudy (early work?)." The top of an alabastron (Cor 89), found in the same area and at the same level, may belong to the same vessel. Large alabastra of this type begin in EC and become popular in MC.
