note
  • Like the aryballos, in that it has a narrow neck and a single handle, the lekythos (pl. lekythoi) is generally a taller vessel with a small, deep mouth. The Greek word lekythos was undoubtedly used for the various forms considered here, although it does appear that it was used for oil-vessels in general. http:www.beazley.ox.ac.uktoolspotteryshapeslekythos.htm 2020 05 08 (en)
