whitetd49: "a new die pair and obverse die"

Pat Lawrence: "Actually, the original kalathos was a wicker basket, the kind that women spinning deposited the accumulating balls of yarn in. They also were used for making offerings, and very soon (already by c 700 BCE) became miniaturized. But when you wanted a flaring headpiece, as when an Archaic caryatid needed something to make her weight-bearing function less implausible, and later for Serapis, since (I suspect) Egyptian gods did have large, tall crowns, the word for a basket persisted but the think was not like wicker. In modern, kathareuousa, Greek the word for a waste basket (e.g., beside your desk) is kalathos achrêstôn."
