26.12.27 Body narrows slightly towards top. At the bottom of the body there is a wider ledge attached to which there are three moulded lion paws as feet.
34.10.8 Short cylindrical knob, with grooved flat top, grooved profile, and conical stem broadening to the slightly domed top of the lid. At the midpoint of the lid, beyond a gentle groove and a ridge, the lid flares to a rounded edge, the underside of which narrows to a tapering straight sided walls that would have sat inside the vase to which it belonged (perhaps a stamnos). The underside of the lid is hollowed, rounded, and smooth.
49.12.1 Everted, nearly flat rim, with round lip, curves sharply to a cylindrical upper body, somewhat concave, separated from the lower body by a ridge above a flange. The lower body is comprised of four horizontal ribs, above a shallow bowl that narrows to a thin, short stem, that curves continuously into a conical foot, finishing with a broad groove above a rounded edge. The underside is hollowed. Two strap handles, which flare on either side, rise up above the rim and then descend to rejoin the body at the flange. A spur projects from the lower part of each handle, approximately in the middle of the upper body.
50.5.5 Large krater with wide, downturned rim that extends sharply from the top of the body; two upcurving handles high on the body, which narrows to a short, cylindrical stem; hollowed pedestal foot, ridged just below the top of the foot. The resting surface is concave and the underside undulates smoothly up to the bottom of the bowl.
61.6.4 Deep skyphos with thickened round rim, groove just below, straight walls of unusually deep body that narrows, with a sharp cuve at the bottom, to a short concave stem, and a thick disk foot, rounded on the exterior and angled on the interior, with a flat resting surface and a slightly concave underside. Two u-shaped handles, round in cross section, rise from the upper part of the body to the height of the rim.
73.10.1 Tall knob, circular in section, flat at top except for a grooved section; knob which narrows then widens to a carination towards the bottom, and narrows again to the join with the concave lid. Flanged rim.
L.2011.1.22 Stem of a glass vessel, with a ridge at the junction of the stem with the foot. The stem narrows in its middle part. The bowl seems to be wide, with a flat bottom.
L.2011.1.50 Fragment of body of a vessel, with a part of rim, rounded. On the lower part, the body slightly narrows, with a slight carination. Fragment of a big open vessel.
L.2011.1.71 Fragment of a glass cylindrical stem, that narrows in the upper part, at the junction with the bowl, clearly separated.
REDMG:1935.87.33 Flared rim. Shape narrows but widens slightly to form the foot of the piece.
REDMG:1951.113.3 Rounded rim, slightly incurving, below which are attached two nearly triangular horizontal strap handles and ring base, canted slightly up; rounded body broadens slightly and then narrows to an angled ring foot, curved on the resting surface, and offset from the slightly convex underside. Body broader than standard Apulian shape, so that it can't fit easily into the sequence of Gnathian skyphoi.
REDMG:1951.134.1 Plain rounded rim, body nearly vertical at top and curving into a deep bowl, which narrows to a short stem attached to a disk foot with a rounded resting surface, small underside pointed at centre. Two horseshoe-shaped horizontal round handles, attached slightly below the rim.
REDMG:1951.140.1 Broad rim, slightly convex on upper surface, ridged at the outside edge, with overhanging lip; neck, concave in profile, broadens to a nearly flat shoulder that curves sharply to an ovoid body, which narrows sharply at the bottom, where it is joined to a moulded pedestal foot with a splayed base and concave underside; upper part of foot has tapering straight sides; the profile of the base is decorated with two ridges. Two incurving horizontal handles, round in sectiona, are attached to the upper third of the body; a vertical handle, also round in section, emerges from the top of the neck and curves down to the lower part of the shoulder.
REDMG:1951.160.1 Large krater with everted mouth and downturned rim, two recurved horizontal round handles attached to the upper part of the cylindrical body, which narrows to ashort, broad stem that curves into a pedestal foot, with a recessed band above slightly tapering sides, hollowed within.
REDMG:1953.25.32 Kalathos-shaped body, with a flaring rounded rim, to the top of which are attached the looped ends of a pair of strap handles, concave on their exterior surfaces; the tubular ends of the loops rejoin the middle of each handle, and below the bottom of each handle, attached at the bottom of the cup, is a spur. Below a carination, the bottom of the cup narrows to a nearly cylindrical stem, ridged at the center, below which it widens, and smoothly curves into the top of a moulded foot, with three ridges, of increasing diameter, on the exterior surface. Within the narrow resting surface is a concave underside, with a conical hollow at centre.
REDMG:1953.25.41 Flanged rim and tapering body, to which are attached horizontal triangular strap handles, slightly canted upwards. The body narrows sharply to short stem, slightly offset from the top of a moulded foot, with a vertical exterior surface and a conical indentation on the underside, and a narrow resting surface.
REDMG:1953.25.57 Cup mouth with slighted everted, rounded rim, concave lip, narrows to neck, which flares to a top-heavy body; round vertical extends horizontally from the rim and descends in slight s-curve to the shoulder; slightly raised base with flat underside, worked with spiral pattern grooved in.
REDMG:1953.25.61 Moulded mouth, flares to tall rim, which narrows to a tall, cylindrical neck; neck curves gently into a sloping shoulder, grooved near the join to the body, which broadens slightly and then tapers, with slightly concave sides, to a slightly raised base, grooved on the resting surface, flat on the sunken underside.
REDMG:1964.1154.1 Outturned rounded rim , narrowing to a nearly cylindrical body (broadens slightly below) that narrows sharply to a short, nearly cylindrical stem, attached to a pedestal foot, hollow within, slightly angled on the upper surface, nearly vertical on the sides, flaring to a slighted everted base, with a rounded resting surface
REDMG:1964.1649 White-ground lekythos, group iii. Tall cylindrical neck broadening to a diagonal shoulder. Vertical strap handle rises from top of neck to bottom of the shoulder, where it broadens. Below the handle attachment a carination marks the join with the straight body, which narrows at the base to a molded pedestal foot with a slightly concave outer edge, convex underside, indented in the centre.
REDMG:1964.1660 Thick rounded rim, slightly overhanging, above a baggy bowl that narrows sharply to a tapering, slightly concave pedestal foot, with a flat base. The interior of the bowl is concave at the centre. Some irregularities such as uneven edge of base.
REDMG:2004.95.1 Phanyllis shape: Cup mouth with flat lip, cylindrical neck broadening to a diagonal shoulder; strap handle extends from the middle of the neck to the bottom of the shoulder, just above the carination, from which descends an ovoid body that narrows at the bottom to a flat disk foot, with a conical depression at the centre of the underside.
