Mould-made pottery lamp decorated on the discus with Amphitrite seated on a shell-shaped throne, draped about her lower limbs; beside her is the golden urn given her by Dionysus; she looks over her left shoulder at a sea-snake. At the rear is a ring handle. Within the raised base an impressed Greek name, with ring-and-dot patterns above and below. Covered with an orange-brown slip.
