1978-79. Unattributed. Mid-fifth.

there is something that looks like a Gr. dot.
CAVI Comments: Monte Iato is in Sicily. Owner's name? Isler says similar inscriptions are
common at Segesta: see V. Tusa, Kokalos 6 (1960) 34ff.; 12 (1966) 207ff.; 13
(1967) 233ff.; 14-15 (1968-69) 462ff.; 16 (1970) 223ff.; 21 (1975) 214ff. The
sigma is five-stroke. In AK 41 (1998) 3-26, the location of vases from a later
Monte Iato excavation is given as Iaitas.
