This article presents an unpublished stirrup jar from the Outer Kerameikos in Athens. The recently discovered archival material in the University of Oxford associated with the purchase of the stirrup jar helps to contextualise this object, and assess its significance in the light of the 1871–2 private excavations in the Outer Kerameikos. It also provides important information regarding the organisation of the antiquities trade in late nineteenth-century Athens.
