CAVI Lemma: FR. OF CUP IN SIX' TECHNIQUE. FROM ATHENS. UNATTRIBUTED. SOSIMOS, POTTER (?).
LATE SIXTH OR EARLY FIFTH.
CAVI Subject: INT.: OWL BETWEEN TWO OLIVE BRANCHES.
CAVI Inscriptions: INT.: AROUND THE PICTURE, GR. IN A CIRCLE BETWEEN TWO INCISED LINES:
[Σοσιμ(?)]ος ανεθεκεν {.} απαρχεν [....].
CAVI Comments: THE RESTORATION OF THE POTTER'S NAME WAS AN IDEA OF LUSCHEY'S WHO COMPARED
TWO PHIALES IN SIX' TECHNIQUE AND ON WHOM BEAZLEY REPORTS WITHOUT TAKING A
POSITION; SEE ABV. THERE SEEMS TO BE A GAP OF FOUR LETTERS, SO THE NAME SOSIMOS
WOULD COMPLETE THE CIRCLE. THE DOT AFTER ανεθεκεν MAY BE ACCIDENTAL.
