CAVI Lemma: BF neck amphora. From S. Agatha de' Goti. Psiax. Last quarter sixth. 520-510.
CAVI Subject: A: Amphiaraus leaving home. B: Adrastus(?) leaving home{1}. On each side, two
warriors in a chariot, with a woman.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: to right of a woman's body (her head is turned to the right):
(Ε)ρ[ι]φυλε{2}. Above the horses' heads: [.](.)[..](.)[..]{3}. To left of the
horses' lower legs: Καλ[λ]ι(φ)ορα[ς], retr.{4}. B: to left of a woman's body
(she faces left): Καλοπα{5}. Above the horses' heads: [Α]δρ̣[αστ]ος{6}. There is
no room for a third inscription.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the scene is very similar to A. {2} epsilon looks like a ϲ, but may be an
irregular epsilon with the upper part lost (Riis). {3} Millingen and CVA read
Αριστος, retr., but after cleaning only two dots remain. {4} the phi with
horizontal hasta; Beazley gives Καλ[λ]ιφορα, but it should be a masculine, cf.
Berlin 1720. {5} Beazley says this must refer to the charioteer's wife, not the
horse, and must be miswritten for Καλ[λ]ιοπα. {6} so Beazley on the basis of
Riis' reading: .δρ...ος. CVA (and Millingen?) read: Αμ(φ)ιαραος, retr., with phi
= omicron, and that was no doubt the restored reading.
CAVI Comments: = Chr. VIII 3. Much restored, but the inscriptions cleaned and examined by
P.J. Riis, as reported by Beazley in AJA.
