07.286.81 by the Achilles Painter, ARV[2] 991/61, 1582, 1677? But according to
Moore this vase is considerably earlier than the Achilles Ptr. The sketch on her
p. 308 gives the gamma as looking like lambda 5. Hence Ελε[--] is perhaps more
likely; this root is often spelled without heta. The ph. does not show the
inscriptions. Moore does not explain the inscriptions. Inscriptions in red.
CAVI Number: 0574
