Shoulder fragment.

Three double guilloche strands with dots in the loops. Sketchy work.

Close, possibly from the same pot, P 20876 D 17:10. The guilloche patterns on Attic pithoi may vary widely, as on 1513 and 1514 and the Acropolis fragment, p. 194, note 8. Cf. the guilloche seen on pithoi of the Rhodian type, e.g. the example found at Istria, Materiale, VI, 1959, p. 283, fig. 7; Histria, II, pl. 18, 308 and bibliography p. 86; frag- ments also from Siphnos, B.S.A., XLIV, 1949, p. 56 and pl. 20, 11, 13, 15 (Brock); and from the Knidian peninsula, B.S.A., XLVII, 1952, p. 174, fig. 2 (Bean and Cook).
