Greek Geometrical amphorae (Attica, Late Geometric: 760 - 700 BC) - Sub-Dipylon
The Geometric period marked the end of Greece's Dark Age and lasted from 900 to 700 BCE.
The Geometric period derives its name from the dominance of geometric motifs in vase painting. Monumental kraters and amphorae were made and decorated as grave markers. These vessels are characteristic of Geometric vase painting during this period.
