CAVI Lemma: Fr. of RF calyx krater. From Tarentum. Group of Polygnotos. Third quarter
fifth. 440-430 (Shapiro).
CAVI Subject: A: Dionysus, with a satyr, comes upon the sleeping Ariadne; at right, Himeros
pours a libation on her head from a phiale.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: in white: to right of the top of Dionysus' thyrsus: [Δι]ονυσο[ς]. Between
Dionysus' hand and Himeros' phiale: Αριαγνη. Above Himeros' head: [Ι]μερος{1}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the inscriptions are done from the facss. Himeros could be spelled Ιμερος
or hιμερος, since the alphabet seems to be mixed.
CAVI Comments: The inscriptions are very faint. The inscription [Hi]meros was discovered
recently. Simon in AK suggested the potion might include forgetfulness, but
still considered the winged figure Eros [before the discovery of the
inscription, no doubt]. By the same hand, a RF hydria in Braunschweig, ARV[2]
1060/139 (Böhr). Böhr thinks the scene refers to the Anthesteria, since the
satyr carries a chous. Parallels for the occurrence of Himeros: CVA, p. 47.
Sigma both four-stroke and three-stroke.
