CAVI Lemma: RF PELIKE. FROM CERVETERI, BANDITACCIA CEMETERY. MATSCH PAINTER{1}. FIRST
QUARTER FIFTH. CA. 480 (CVA).
CAVI Subject: A: HERACLES AND GERAS. B: DIONYSUS WITH A KANTHAROS AND A MAENAD POURING FOR
HIM.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: FROM HERACLES' (CLOSED) MOUTH TO NEAR GERAS' FACE: λαυεο VAC. 2{2}. B:
NONSENSE: BETWEEN THE UPPER BODIES: χλ(υ)χε(γ){3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} AKIN TO THE FLYING-ANGEL PAINTER. {2} UNCERTAIN READING FROM THE PHOTO,
NOT CERTAINLY COMPLETE. THERE IS A SLIGHT GAP BETWEEN THE THIRD AND FOURTH
LETTERS. CVA READS: (κ)λαυσει, `YOU WILL WEEP,' WHICH SEEM DUBIOUS ALSO, BUT IS
REPORTED BY SHAPIRO. I TOO THOUGHT THAT THIS INSCRIPTION, WHICH I READ ONLY
IMPERFECTLY AND INCOMPLETELY, MIGHT BE SOMETHING SPOKEN BY HERACLES, BUT IN VIEW
OF THE INSCRIPTION ON B, WHICH IS CLEARLY NONSENSE, THIS IS PERHAPS UNLIKELY.
{3} COMPLETE. THE BRACKETED LETTERS ARE CLEAR BUT DISJOINTED.
