Other late-looking vases are the two figured _Notiz._ 1905, p. 150, fig. 7. Pais, _Ricerche_, I. (1915), p. 382, quoting Helbig dates them later than the sixth century. But Piganiol, _Journ. des Sav._ 1915, p. 552, n. 4, supported by Dugas, argues for the possibility of an earlier date on the ground that, though the shape might belong to the end of the fifth century, the decoration, for which cp. Louvre C 44, figured by Pottier, _Album_, I. pl. 23, points to the seventh. This argument will hardly do as it stands. The vase cannot be older than its shape, which rather recalls the fifth and fourth century festooned cups from Gnathia. But though it so much recalls that period, it does not seem to find an exact parallel in it, and the divergence may be more significant than the similarity. No other vases were found in the same grave with these two, so there is no context to suggest an earlier date: but if I am not mistaken, fifth and fourth century Gnathia ware is similarly recalled with a similar slight difference by another Forum vase, _Notiz._ 1903, p. 408, fig. 37, found in a grave with nine others (including figs. 36, 38, 39, 42, quoted above) which all point to a sixth century date. It must not be assumed that features common to early Greek and Italic wares always began earlier in Greece: a whole series of Etruscan bucchero vases has broad ribbon-shaped vertical handles that in Greek ware are distinctive of the late sixth century potter Nikosthenes: yet one of these bucchero vases comes from the early (seventh century) Regulini Galassi tomb at Caere, see _Roem. Mitt._ XXII. p. 126, fig. 18, p. 207. For Forum examples see _Notiz._ 1903, pp. 408, 422, figs. 38, 53. Appendix F (to p. 249). _Evidence for Intramural Burials in Rome_
