Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to a Greek pottery style that developed in the seventh century BCE on the island of Chios, and was known in other areas, including at the Greek colony in Naukratis, Egypt. It is characterized by an unusually white slip and a painting technique that differs from the contemporary Wild Goat Style in that animals and figures are not filled with pattern, but are more often left in reserve.
