Note on a vessel of unusual type from the Abdera “Teian” necropolis: mini‐“Falaieff krater” or thymiaterion?
Journal Title: MATERIALE SI CERCETARI ARHEOLOGICE - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
The Abdera “Teian” necropolis has revealed a Greek vase with unusual morphological features, at first sight recalling those of the so‐called “Falaieff kraters” but which might well alternatively represent a variety of portable thymiaterion, issued from a later 4th / early 3rd century BC tumular context.
