Note 1645 — Appendix D (to p. 170). Early Athenian Dress
Reading edition
Skias, Arch. Eph. 1898, p. 103, n. 3 (Eleusis); Furtwaengler, Aegina, p. 474. As compared with the Geometric pin the archaic (post-geometric) type is shorter, but thicker, stronger, and the ornamental knobs thicker and closer. This type is particularly well represented at the Argive Heraeum (Thiersch ap. Furtwaengler, ibid. p. 414): that is to say, the period when dress-pins became heavier in the Argolid is once again the end of the Geometric period.
