Transferred from Gustaf III:s Museum of Antiquities to the National Museum., A lekythos (pl. lekythoi) is generally a taller, cylindrical vessel with a small, deep mouth, narrow neck and a single handle. However, many variants of the shape do exist, including the rounded, squat form and the ovoid “Deianeira” form, all in various sizes. They were used for the storage of oils and are especially associated with funerary contexts. Towards the end of the fourth century BC they were functionally replaced by the unguentaria., Gustaf III's Museum of Antiquities n°656. Äldre bild A.Stalteri Marcus. M. Sjöblom., Rim chipped.
