42. Several variations of the motif, with horizontal zigzag or rhomboid lozenge net, are represented in many Minoan and Mycenaean examples. Kanta 1980, 236, pl. 87. 2-3, 220, pl. 89. 2, 11, pl. 113.

44. The FS 304 LH III A2-early version is similar to the example from H/I. pit 10+11 and C pit 8 from Knossos (the Unexplored Mansion). MUM 1984, 183, pl. 174. 1. There the associated context is certainly dated to the LM III A2, but the stemmed bowl is stylistically near to LM III A1 style of decoration.
