The upper part of the heads of Athena (helmet, spear) and the woman (bud-tiped staff), and the top of the caduceus of Hermes remain. Above, the tongues of the upper border. Third quarter of the sixth century B.C. Right: Fragment of a thin walled vase with very pronounced curve at the point immediately below the ground line of the scene. A woman striding to right.

Two fragments of a vase in the Acropolis collection (2234) with a very similar curve are called psykter fragments by Langlotz.
