  During the last seventy-five years, the international Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum project has created an enormous database of ancient Greek pottery held in public and private collections. In 1984, a handy Summary Guide was published to help students find their way through the 239 fascicules, with their differing editorial systems. This essential reference tool is brought up to date in this new edition, which adds the details of a further sixty fascicules. Four indexes list fascicules by country; by city (detailing plates with Attic black and red figure); by shapes (in Attic); and by other wares. The section on South Italian vases has been rearranged.
