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., Possibly a fake decoration as white area is white shellack and the incised lines are strange. The figures are partly fine drawn, partly very sketchy as being from various periods. The vase is though genuine. Should be x-rayed. Condition inventory (Veronika Eriksson) and photography (Ove Kaneberg) 2003-10-06., Almost entirely preserved but handle has been broken off. Lots of naggigs and chips at rim, neck, body and base. Paint very worn, though black paint on white ground seems to be more stable possibly due to later painting., H. 27.7. Ø 4.3.
