V GREEK VASES IN PORTUGAL in March and April 1959, after I had gained access to other collections, I worked under Prof. Beazley's supervision. This part of my studies appeared soon afterwards in Humanitas XI-XII and Archivo Español de Arqueología XXXI. A few months later I encountered new material, which I discussed in a paper included in Conimbriga I. I then resolved to collect all the papers in a single volume which would contain a study of the vases in chronological order, and not, as formerly, according to their whereabouts. This is, therefore, what the reader will find here, together with two further vases and a fragment, which are now published for the first time. It is my pleasant task to acknowledge help of various kinds towards the completion of this book. Nobody who reads it will need to be told how much the author owes to Prof. Beazley's generous advice, though any blemishes that may have been left are VI GREEK VASES IN PORTUGAL certainly not his. I am also indebted to Prof. A. D. Trendall, of Canberra University, Australia, for some valuable suggestions; to Prof. B. Ashmole, of Oxford University, for a photograph; to Dr. Dietrich von Bothmer, of the Metropolitan Museum in New York, for indicating a reference; and to Mr. J. M. Bairrão Oleiro, of Coimbra University, for some bibliographical references and for introducing me to new material.I also wish to express my grateful thanks to the owners of the vases: to the Prime Minister, Prof. A.
