Referenties
- Referentie: Babelon, RN 1912, pp. 1-40, illus. (= Mélanges 4, pp. 304-43)
- Referentie: Orsi, AttiMemIIN 1919, p. 29
- Referentie: Kraay, NC 1956, p. 49
- Referentie: Vlasto, through whose hands the bulk of the hd. passed, was convinced that the whole formed a single find. This firsthand opinion should carry more weight than Orsi's subsequent claim that the "hoard" was a conflation of several finds
Opmerkingen
- Opmerking: Kroll and Heath 2002
- Opmerking: Babelon's date of burial was based on the association of the Chalcis-Boeotia stater with the political events of 508 B.C. The discovery of three medium incuse of Metapontum among the pieces in the BM may suggest a somewhat later date
