Sparta G (see Psaroudakēs 1994, II, Fig. 126 for a drawing), an ‘extension’ section, and at least two ‘extension’ sections from Perachōra (pl. V 6b, right, second from top and last but one) do not possess this outer depression. The Poseidōnia pipes, also, lack this feature (pl. V 2c). Significantly, perhaps, all these items are of a relatively early date.
