Hearst Museum object titled Amphora, accession number 8-1866, described as Large Etrusco-Corinthian amphora, repaired. Attributed to the Monte Abatone Painter; ca. 630 BCE. Description from Matteucig (1951): Neck-amphora; height: 42 cm; diameter: 29.5 cm (see Matteucig's plate XX, 15). Italo-Corinthian. Clay white; cream slip; reddish-brown paint. Shape similar to no. 8-1863. Three deep incised lines on lip; neck solid brown, except for a line of cream dots at its base; on flat side of handles, linear decoration consisting of five narrow triangles set base to base between three parallel bands. The upper half of the body is solid red brown; lower half, in the color of the slip, except for three bands. On the middle, traces of three animals going right: a horse, a lion, and a deer. The animals are in the color of the background (red brown) with violet (?) and cream details. Their contours are traced with double in cised lines; between the double lines, cream dots. The horns of the deer, the mane and tail of horse and lion are outlined in the same technique, with additional incised zig zags. Traces of incised floral filling ornaments. The closest parallel I could find is from Poggio Volpaio, tomba a camera no. 6, excavation of 8-1893, a fragmentary amphora in the Museo Archeologico, Florence. For other amphorae, perhaps related to ours, cf. Not. Sc., 1924, p. 409, fig. 3, p. 410, fig. 4, from Tarquinia.

High neck with thick curving lip; strap handles; squat ovoid body on low flat base. Inside mouth, for about 3 cm, brown band; three incised lines on lip; neck solid brown, with a line of cream dots just above fillet; on edges of handles, brown vertical stripes; on flat side of handles, at point of contact with lip and shoulder, three horizontal stripes; on shoulder, three groups of seven to ten tongues; below tongues, anar row red band, a reserved line, then a red and gray band; broad brown band with double incised, interlaced, semicircles; anar row gray band; a broader red one and a narrow reserved; another broad red band; broad reserved zone; bottom solid brown. Vase restored from several pieces; surface, scratched; paint peeling off. For similar examples, cf. Not. Sc., 1903, p. 272, fig. 5, from Pitigliano; J.
