CAVI Lemma: RF hydria. Group of Polygnotos. Third quarter fifth. Ca. 430 (CVA).
CAVI Subject: Upper zone: woman; chest; flying Eros with a lyre; woman with a lyre; youth
leaning on his stick; woman seated with a [book?] roll(1); woman playing flutes;
girl pyrrhic dancer on a platform; another waiting to dance; woman with a lyre;
chair; two women conversing. Lower zone: Theseus (youth with spears) pursuing a
woman (ARV[2]){2}. At left, two women and a male (called Poseidon in CVA).
CAVI Inscriptions: Upper zone: above the youth with the stick: Καλλιας{3}. Above the seated
woman at left: Nικοπολις. Above the pyrrhic dancer: Κλεοδοξα. Near the flautist:
Σελινικη{4}. Above the second pyrrhic dancer: Δορκα. Above the woman with the
lyre: Πηγασις.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so CVA, but I do not have this in my articles on book rolls, since I
thought the `roll' was too thin and might be a pair of flutes. {2} CVA says,
Peleus pursuing Thetis. {3} so ARV[2] 1588. {4} Pape has Σελινικος from CIG
4.8450, which is this vase; LGPN ii has the feminine.
CAVI Comments: CVA says the inscriptions are very incompletely preserved and uncertain. For
Κλεοδοξα see LGPN ii. Some names are not entered there.
