HORSE TO RIGHT.
CAVI Inscriptions: ATHENS, N.M. 2414: ABOVE THE WOMAN'S HEAD, AND TO RIGHT OF THE BIRD,
DIAGONALLY UPWARD: [--]αριτα[--]/[Χ]αριτα[ιος]?
CAVI Footnotes: {1} COLLIGNON-COUVE SUGGESTED RESTORING [Χ]αριτα[ιος], KNOWN AS THE NAME OF A
CONTEMPORARY POTTER (CF. ABV 161). LGPN II 1 LISTS ABV 161 AND THIS PLAQUE BOTH
FOR THE POTTER, BUT ABV DOES NOT MAKE THE COMBINATION. IN JHS BEAZLEY SAYS:
POLLAK SUGGESTED THE POTTER CHARITAIOS, BUT WAS SHOWN WRONG BY PFUHL. BOARDMAN
60 RIGHTLY SAYS IT SHOULD BE THE NAME OF THE WOMAN OR A HORSE. - LGPN II LISTS
THE FF. WOMEN'S NAMES: Χαριτα (ROMAN IMPERIAL); Χαριτη (IV B.C.); Χαριτιανη
(INC.); Χαριτιον (100 B.C.); Χαριτω (IV B.C.). SO [Χ]αριτα OR [Χ]αριτα[ια]?
CAVI Comments: POLLAK SUGGESTED THE POTTER CHARITAIOS, BUT WAS SHOWN WRONG BY PFUHL
(BEAZLEY). FOUR FRS., OF WHICH ONLY THE FIRST (2414) PRESERVES AN INSCRIPTION.
MOMMSEN 47: THIS IS THE ONLY PARALLEL FOR THE QUADRIGA PROCESSION ON THE BERLIN
SERIES; 63 GIVES THE REASONS WHY M., FOLLOWING BOARDMAN, CONSIDERS THESE FRS. TO
BE FROM A DIFFERENT SERIES: DIFFERENT FIND SPOT; DIFFERENT HEIGHT OF RESERVED
STRIP ABOVE MAEANDER; 2414 DOES NOT FIT INTO BERLIN SERIES BECAUSE OF THE
DIRECTION OF TH MAEANDER.
