^{page 228 note 1} In the case of the white lekythoi ‘confined to Greece’ means as compared with Etruria and Campania; a considerable number have been found at Gela (cf. e.g. those in the Ashmolean Museum) and also a few at Locri.

^{page 230 note 2} The identification of the λέβης γαμικός mentioned in the Eleusinian temple inventory with the variety of amphora with a high foot and double handles is due to Dr. Zahn. Panofka had proposed the name θερμοπότις and based his interpretation on the fact that holes occur on the upper part of the high stand; these he thought served for the purpose of letting through the draught for the fire kindled beneath. But these holes are found on a very small proportion of the vases (only on two out of the twenty examples in the Athens Museum). For an explanation of these holes cf. Wolters, , Vasen aus Menidi ii., page 129Google Scholar, Jahrbuch 1899. They may have served for the insertion of the fingers for more convenient lifting. For further literature on the subject of the vases cf. Robert, Arch. Zeit. 1882; Hartwig, ᾿Εφ. ᾿Αρχ 1897; Furtwängler, Samml. Sab., Pl. LXVIII, 1; Couve, , B.C.H. 1898, p. 277.Google Scholar

MissKing, , A.J.A. 1903, p. 324Google Scholar, mentions three votive ones not on this list—two in the National Museum at Athens (Nos. 12540, 12280) and one in the Louvre, To this increased list must now be added No. 13032, a recent acquisition of the Athens Museum, which will be mentioned again later (see Appendix I.), and also an example now in the Boston Museum of Fine Arts.

Lecuyer (1883) No. 368. With the one exception of the example in the Hermitage, which was found at Kertch, the above are all derived from Attica.

^{page 232 note 2} Among the Acropolis sherds, however, there are some fragments of black-figured lebetes gamikoi, and in the above list B 298 of the British Museum is of the black-figured technique. The shape ilself goes even further back, cf. e.g. the Eretria vases of archaic style, in the Athens Museum, which, besides the high foot, have the same vertical handles.

^{page 233 note 1} For the onos cf. Hartwig, , Ἐφ. Ἀρχ. 1897, p. 138 and Pl. X.Google Scholar The reproduction on Pl. X., in which a woman is represented arranging branches in two vases of this shape, is accurate. The purple flowers, which have been suggested (J.H.S. 1903, p. 150), do not exist in the original, though some scratches on the black glaze at first sight lead to this conclusion. This is important, as the prese nce of purple flowers would be against the theory that myrtle branches were put into the vase to impart a pleasant aroma to the bridal bath; the stalks of flowers would certainly not have that effect. For the pyxis cf. Lorimer, H. L., (J.H.S. 1903, p. 133Google Scholar; for the lebes gamikos cf. Schreiber, , Ann. dell' Inst. 1876, p. 333.Google Scholar The following are vases in other museums on which this shape is depicted:—pyxis in British Museum, E 774, cf. Dumont and Chaplain i., Pl. IX.; pyxis from Eretria in Berlin Museum, cf. Jahrbuch 1900, p. 144.
