CAVI Comments: The frs. are burned and the inscription on B is faint (though clear in the
photo). For the border on the Int. see Munich 9412 and 2171. The writing is
strong and well spaced: early style. The rho is triangular, on which Feldmann
has a discussion, saying it is rare in Attica, but Megarian; it is open at the
bottom, the middle `point' is high. The frs. are burned and the inscription on B
is faint (though clear in the photo) For tongue border and siren on Int. see
Munich 9412 and 2171. - The writing is strong and well spaced: early style.
