  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} 3 strokes.
  • CAVI Comments: A price Gr. Stamnos is the word for `pelike' (Scheibler after Johnston (1973a), 266). Johnston defines oxybaphon as the common small handleless bowl and not as a fish plate as Robinson had thought when he published a BG plate from Olynthos; see further AJA 82. The vase is not in Beazley.
