DÉNES GABLER AND ANDRÁS MÁRTON: Head-Pots in the Antiquities Collection

D. M. Bailey, "Cnidian Relief Ware Vases and Fragments in the British Museum. Part 2. Oinophoroi and Jugs", Acta Rei Cretariae Romanae Fautores 19-20 (1979), 257-72; Mandel 1988, 95-191. U. Mandel, "Die frühe Produktion der sog. Oinophorenware-Werkstätten in Knidos", Acta Rei Cretariae Romanae Fautores 36 (2000), 66. On dating by hairstyle, see Bailey 1972-1973, 14. The hairstyles on the head-portions of lagynoi fol­low the fashions of Faustina minor, Lucilla, the early Severan period, and the early third century AD. Similar, curly locks framing the face are found on a portrait from the Severan period: Poulsen 1974, no. 145, 146-48, pl. CCXXIV-CCXXV; Inan and Rosenbaum I960. The hair of male grotesques is of no use in establishing chronology: see Mandel 1988, 127. A few pieces reached Britannia, Gallia and Pannónia: D. Baldoni, Vasi a matrice di etä imperiale a lasos, Arch. Italiana di Iasos, III, Roma 2003, 17, fig. 1; A. V. Radilescu, "Importuri ceramice la Dunareä de Jos din dec. III. e. n. (Keramikimporte am unteren Lauf der Donau)", ed. H. Daicoviciu, in In memóriám C. Daicoviciu, Cluj 1974, 337-47; on Pergamené ceramics: O. Ziegenhaus and G. De Luca, Das Asklepieon. 2. Teil. Altertümer von Pergamon, vol. XL 2. Der nördliche Temenos-Bezirk und angren­zende Anlagen in hellenistischer und frührömischer Zeit, Berlin 1975, 108; Mandel 1988, 25. We do not know of a lagynos with human head ornament certainly made in Pergamum: F. Dóvener, Die Gesichtskrüge der römischen Nordwestprovinzen, British Archaeological Reports International Series 870, Oxford 2000, 147. Ibid., 25. On the pomegranate motif: Mandel 1988, 215, Taf. 34 F3, F5, Taf. 18 P 126; J. Schäfer, "Hellenistische Keramik aus Pergamon", Pergamenische Forschungen, 2, Berlin 1968, Taf. 60, Q 32, Q 37. The garland is described as a laurel wreath by J. Schäfer and others: cf. "Blattbüschel": S. Künzl, Ein Komplex von Formschüsseln für megarische Becher. Die "Mainzer Werkstatt", Kataloge vor­und frühgeschichtlicher Altertümer 32, Mainz 2002, kat. 72, 76-77. "Megarian" ceramics of similar decoration are found alond with their moulds (in so far as provenances are known) in western Asia Minor and Pergamum. G. Leroux, Lagynos. Recherches sur la céramique et Vart ornamental hellénistiques, Paris 1913, 73, 91; H. Wrede, 'Matronen im Kult des Dionysos. Zur hellenistischen 'Genreplastik'", Mitteilungen des Deutsches Archäologisches Institutes Römisches Abteilung 98 (1991), 163. Female heads are often crowned with grape or ivy leaves. The black African and grotesque figures also belong to the Dionysiac rout: (although the latter have also been explained as apotropaic), mark­ing the jugs and cups as connected to the Dionysus cult: Salomonson 1980, 78; Mandel 1988, 114; I. Summerer, "Karikaturen und Grotesken", in E. W. Harndor Hrsg., Hauch des Prometheus. Meisterwerke in Ton, München 1996, 17 lf; Dövener 2000, 149. Relief lagynoi from Asia Minor and their connec­tion to Dionysus and his circle: Leroux 1913, 21, 73 ff, 91 ff; A. Greifenhagen, "Beiträge zur antiken
