  • CAVI Lemma: Frs. of BF column krater. Lydos. Third quarter sixth. 550-540 (Kossatz-Deissmann).
  • CAVI Subject: A: Return of Hephaestus.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: A: around a maenad's head: Φιλοποσ(ο̅)(?){1}. To left of the face of a satyr playing the flutes: Μολπαιος, retr. To right of Hephaestus' head: hεφαιστος. Below this inscription, lined up with the preceding on the right: ονος. Under the ithyphallic donkey and above a prostrate satyr, curved around the donkey's penis: Ουκαλεγον{2}. By a satyr who is carrying an amphora: Εοι[--]{3}. By the lower leg of a satyr: h[ε]ρμοθαλες{4}. Below another satyr: Κραται[--]{5}. Between a pair of feet: [--]πισιος{6}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} so K.-D.; the last letter is quite uncertain; φιλοποσια occurs in Xen. {2} known as an old man `who does not care' in Il. 3.148; cf. also Cab. Méd. 851. {3} from ἠοῖος(?) (G. Neumann). {3} or hερμοθαλες [[h(ε)]], syllabic? {5} Κραται[ος] or Κραται[μενες] or the like (K.-D. or Neumann?). {6} if pi is an error for rho: Charisios? No name known to me ends in --]pisios.
