Bibliography

Black-glazed lid, probably belonging to a lekanis, pieced together from many fragments and restored. It was found in 2003, during the Makrygiannis plot excavation, inside Well ΝΜΑ 78.

It is slightly conical with a low cylindrical handle. The handle tapers outwards and has a deep depression on its upper part.
