CAVI Lemma: BF Panathenaic prize amphora. From Cyrenaica. Unattributed; workshop of
Meleager Painter (Robertson). Probably 392/1{1}. Or later in fourth (?).
CAVI Subject: A: Athens. Column figures: Agathos Daimon and Agathe Tyche. B: quintain: two
horsemen throwing javelins.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: athla-inscription fragmentary{2}. The archon inscription, by the right
column: [--]ς ηρχεν{3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} if archon Philokles; there is space for seven missing letters. {2}
Eschbach does not say that the athla inscription (by the left column) is
fragmentary. {3} the sigma no longer visible in 1983.
CAVI Comments: Dev. supports the 392/1 date, but this has been doubted. Robertson opts for
the early date, thinks the style of B is not too late for that; he compares the
two Panathenaics of the Hildesheim Group. Eschbach follows Süsserot in restoring
the archon Philokles as the most probable, 392/1. In n. 80 he gives measurements
for the length of the name; pl. 5,4 shows the available space. Frel is cited
ibid. for other possible archons. - The prize inscription is Attic with Ionic
lambda.
