CAVI Lemma: BF amphora. From Cerveteri? Painter of Berlin 1686. Third quarter sixth. Ca.
530
CAVI Subject: A: chorus of `Knights' (Beazley), with flutist. B: satyrs and maenads.
CAVI Inscriptions: In front of the flutist: nonsense: ειοχ(ε)οχ(ε).
CAVI Comments: Hampe says the inscription eiocheoche is not meaningless; he compares New
York 26.49 (the Nearchos aryballos) for the shouts of pygmies and cranes, Acr.
i, 220 and 2184 and Acr. i, 213 and 2124, for other shouts. Pickard-Cambridge
thought this was a shout addressed to the `horses.' Beazley proved it nonsense.
For parallels, see AttScr and Brownlee, RA 1989, 4 n. 5 who discusses the
inscriptions connected with this painter. The second and third epsilons are
miswritten.
