  • CAVI Subject: Lower part of a running woman.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: To right of her leg: [Μ]ḥεγακλες{2}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} Beazley: "Somewhat recalls the oinochoe by the Kleomelos Painter, Athens Acr. 703 (p. 118 no. 2), and Apollodoros." {2} My restoration; Beazley has ...hεγακλες; I could not see the heta clearly in the photo and in Immerwahr (1982), 60/3. I suggest (from the photo): Μ̣εγακλες; Threatte (1996) finds both readings inconclusive; in i, 25, Threatte had read Μ]εγακλες. Complete at end.
  • CAVI Comments: Perhaps καλος was written elsewhere; or a kalos-name without kalos. Langlotz says the vase could not be before 498 BC, when M. returned from exile.
