Addenda to Necrocorinthia

The work of publishing the Corinthian pottery from the sanctuary of Hera Limenia at Perachora has suggested the present attempt to offer a few observations on the styles represented in the Corinthian animal-frieze ware and to discuss the chronology of Corinthian pottery in general. There is here no suggestion that Necrocorinthia is out-of-date and superseded. If it were, it would be beyond the powers of the present writer to supply the deficiency. Fortunately it seems clearly established that Payne's broad divisions of style and much of his detail stand unshaken by the addition of fresh material to the corpus of Corinthian pottery. There is, however, a continually developing prospect of further division and subdivision of styles and a greater understanding of the interrelation of these.
