CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary BF plate. From Attica. Lydos. Ca. 550.
CAVI Subject: The sons of Boreas.
CAVI Inscriptions: In front and back, Gr. in large letters: Ερια[νθες(?) ανεθεκεν or divinity,
or both τες(?) τεχν]ες εργον{1}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} not [σοφι]ες εργον, poetic, which does not scan. Possibly [περικαλλ]ες
εργον. For τεχνες εργον see DAA no. 244 as restored. Robinson had read Εριν ες
εργον or Εριδες εργον, which will not do.
CAVI Comments: Ex D.M. Robinson. Now in the Sackler Museum where I saw it in 1991. Possibly
the potter's dedication, giving his name. The coarse lettering might conceivably
fit Lydos' hand. K.-G. refers to the winged figures on the plate and compares
them to the winged youth named Kastor (one of the Dioscouri) on the lip cup
Basel, Antikenmuseum BS 1452.
