[edit]So far, it is a very well designed article already. When you say "The monumental vase is hollow at the bottom, reinforcing its function as a grave marker and not a mixing bowl", did you mean that there is a hole in the bottom that would allow liquid to flow out? You might want to clarify how/why a hollow in the bottom makes it a grave marker. A small caption under the picture would be useful.

Sunni's Comment
[edit]Hi Noah, I think your article looks good so far! Your description of the krater itself is well written and detailed. I think you could even compare this maybe to other geometric kraters to show why this one is more important. Overall, keep working it looks great.

Comments from Prof. Paga
[edit]Hi Noah - this is a great start to your article! Here are a few suggestions for improvement.
- Make sure to put the citations after the punctuation (this is Wikipedia's preferred style).
- In the last sentence, you write "...and reveals" but this makes it ungrammatical. Remove the "and."
- The krater in the MET is 1 example of a Diyplon krater. In fact, this is a term for all monumental kraters found in Athens near the Dipylon Gate and used for burial purposes. You should edit your article to reflect that this is a broad category. You can keep your description of the MET vase as an example of the Dipylon Krater genre.
