CAVI Lemma: RF pyxis with lid. Unattributed. Last quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: On the top of the lid: a dog chasing a hare.
CAVI Inscriptions: Grr.: on the underside of the lid: Mu and pi. On the bottom, outside: mu. On
the edge(1): pi.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} `am Falz des Behälters'.
CAVI Comments: Bought in Athens. There are two sets of marks to fit the right lid on the
pyxis, made by different people [by the potter and the user?]. Mu incised before
the BG was put on [and hence not very visible]; the pi incised after the BG had
been put on [after firing?].
