CAVI Lemma: RF cup{1}. From Tanagra. Near Jena Painter, akin to Diomed Painter. Ca. 400.
404/3 (?) (Robertson).
CAVI Subject: Woman dismounting from her horse at an altar.
CAVI Inscriptions: To right of her head, in white: Σπαρτη.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Acrocup.
CAVI Comments: See the full discussion in CB iii. Sparte was a daughter of Eurotas, the wife
of Lakedaimon, and the mother of Amyklas. For Athenian Philolaconism, cf. Hauser
and Corbett. - 404/3 is a good date for this vase, because of its pro-Spartan
bias; Sparte is the nymph of Sparta (Robertson). P.-Z. however attempts a date
in the 370's.
