Watch List notes:

Terra cotta kothon with red-brown ornamentation. Greek, Corinthian, circa 550-500 BC. Circular body on squat, flaring foot. Rim extending deeply into body. Decorated with red concentric circles and a series of short dashes at high point of rim. Height: 5.6cm. Intact with some minor loss of pigment. Cf. CVA Heidelberg, pl. 19, 3.

Ex Professor William Kendrick Pritchett Collection.

A container for perfume or other precious goods, the kothon's deeply set rim aided against spillage. This type of vessel appears to have been common for temple dedications.
