Abstract
The impressive bowl with round handles on a high foot is decorated in red-brown on a buff ground with figurative and geometric patterns. The upper panel shows riders on horseback with birds above or below. Other panels show kneeling horses and birds. The noteworthy shape of this bowl, thrown in one piece on the potter’s wheel, is called “standed dinos,” once lidded (now missing) and used as an ash urn. The shape is inspired by metal vessels from the Eastern Mediterranean, the design by Greek Geometric examples. Adapted from local southern Etruscan tastes, this vessel demonstrates the broadening of the Etruscan horizon beyond central Italy in the late 8th century BCE.
