Description

A two-handled vessel, recorded as a Levanto-Helladic amphora-crater, is photographed against a plain pale background. Dark painted bands run around the neck, shoulder and foot, and the body carries a horse on the left, a wheeled chariot with two standing figures in the centre, and a long-necked animal on the right, with a wavy band between them. The number 436 is painted on the neck.
