CAVI Subject: A: conversation of two bearded men, between two horsemen and eagles facing
the center. B: duel of nude hoplites between similar horsemen and eagles.
CAVI Inscriptions: Nonsense: imitation inscriptions: A: betweeen the bearded men: 6 letters.
Between the legs of the right man and the right-hand horseman: 6-7 letters.
There is no inscription on the left. B: above the shields of the combatants,
horizontal: σι(.)(ο)(.)(.)αλ.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} related to Lydos. By the same hand as Missouri-Columbia, Moon, ed.,
Midwestern ... 60/35; Frankfurt, ABV 681/11 bis, pl. 4,4 in festschrift
Schauenburg, is in the manner.
CAVI Comments: Overlap. Very sloppy letters; those on A are quite illegible. B. considers
whether the inscriptions [on B.], although nonsense, are meant to lift the
scenes to the heroic plane. For the idea, B. refers to P.A.L. Greenhalgh, Early
Greek Warfare (1973) 98.
