| Abstract: | A rare shape in Greek pottery of the 4th century B.C. is the bell-krater of so-called Falaieff type. Red-figure and black-glaze examples made in Athens have long been known, but this article presents fragments from the American excavations in ancient Corinth that represent a contemporary local coarseware version. Catalogues of the Athenian and Corinthian pieces are followed by a discussion of the chronology, based particularly upon deposits at Corinth, and by an examination of the relationship between the two series. Antecedents of the Falaieff krater in Etruscan Bucchero and possible functions for the shape are suggested in the final section. | |
