CAVI Lemma: Fr. of BF column krater (?). From Orbetello. Compared with the Painter of
Louvre F 51{1}. Third quarter sixth. 550-540.
CAVI Subject: The Wooden Horse (part of the scene). On the left, a bearded man with another
standing on his shoulders.
CAVI Inscriptions: In front of his face, starting above, not facing: [Φ]ερευς, retr.{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Beazley; the painter comes close to some of the more old-fashioned vases
of Group E (ABV 313). {2} probably, Furtw. The inscription does not face the
warriors it is nearest to on the left, so it perhaps refers to one of the pair
on the right.
CAVI Comments: For the name, cf. Furtw. [in cat.]. Phereus is the name of a Greek in Quint.
Smyrn. 2.279, etc. According to the reverse dictionary of Dornseiff and Hansen
this is the only suitable restoration for a Greek connected with Troy. Schefold,
however, thinks it is an epithet for Neoptolemos who was born in Pherae in
Thessaly.
