2000P-1DER-007WST Trail Die Reverse

Description

Strong fluting line extension, into the stylobate, under columns 10 and 11. Moderate step deviation is seen under columns 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 with an offset direction of 170 degrees. NOTES: This die was discovered by Robert Tingle. This is one of the dies to show a relationship between design extension (trails) and wavy steps. Both the fluting lines and the trails are traveling in the same direction. This was the first die to carry a WST (wavy step / trail) designator.
