object type / vase shape: East Greek trefoil-mouthed oinochoe
<p>- description: dark painting on white slip (surface worn) (appart from neck)
- mouth: triangular eyes painted white on dark
- neck: cable
- shoulder: lion
- production place: ? the shape is rather south ionian than north ionian and rather later in the 7th century. The outline drawing of the lion, though, is very odd. The clay colour is comparable to later Klazomenian vases. Could the oinochoe be a (Carian? North Ionian?) imitation of south ionian wild goat style?
- period / date: middle wild goat style II, 630-600 BC (?)
- material: pottery (clay)
- museum / inventory number: Basel, Antikenmuseum und Sammlung Ludwig Bo 76 (donated by H. and T. Bosshard)
