CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF psykter. From Orvieto. Euphronios. Last quarter sixth. 520-510
(Beazley). 515-510 (`Euphronios').
CAVI Subject: Death of Pentheus.
CAVI Inscriptions: Γαλενε, retr.{1}. To right of Pentheus' back of head, diagonally upward:
Πενθευς. A fr. in Freiburg which may belong has: ...λ..ργ..{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the letters αλε, retr., are visible in pl. 6 diagonally downward, along
the back of the maenad to right who grabs Pentheus' right arm. {2} a dr. by
Beazley shows: `doubtful if belongs': frr. in Freiburg: [--]λ .ργ.[--]. I do not
see where in the Berlin Antikenmuseum (1991), 175 this fr. would go. Firm and
largish letters. Is [Φι]λ[ε]ργ[ος] possible?
CAVI Comments: One fr. from Freiburg is now in Boston, another may belong. Beazley says the
earliest representation of Pentheus. Drougou n. 105 gives parallels to the name
Galene.
