Rim fragment. Interior, black. Exterior, beneath a line running just below the rim, warrior to right. Only his head, neck, shoulders, and right arm remain. He wears a low-crested Corinthian helmet, and is clad in a garment, mostly missing, but probably a cuirass. Below the cheekpiece of his helmet, the edge of his round shield is preserved. He reaches behind, over his shoulder, and holds a club or sabre. Adapted from Clark, A., CVA Malibu 2 (1990).
