CAVI Lemma: RF skyphos. From Tarquinia. Penelope Painter. Third quarter fifth. Ca.

CAVI Inscriptions: A: Above each of the women: καλη. κ(α)λ(η). Ωλυσσευς{1}. B: over one suitor:
traces of two letters, perhaps remains of καλος. Above a seated suitor: [κ]αλος.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Chiusi 1831, by the same painter (ARV[2] 1300/2) has Ολισσευς, cf.
Threatte (1980), 47.

Parian-Thasian and thus Polygnotan; this was denied by Kretschmer, Furtwängler
and Buschor; see FR. All inscriptions horizontal. Ionic alphabet.
