CAVI Lemma: RF acorn lekythos. Painter of Frankfort Acorn. Late fifth.
CAVI Subject: Seated woman (bride?) with Eros and a woman (Hera?). Behind her, two women
(Aphrodite and Peitho?). See ARV[2].
CAVI Inscriptions: On the lip, in faint red: Φιντιας Αθ̣εναιος εποει.
CAVI Comments: The inscription recently discovered in a cleaning and claimed to be genuine,
but see AttScr. Note that the sixth-century Phintias produced two cockle-shell
aryballoi signed by him as potter on the mouth: ARV[2] 25/2-3. L.-H. obviously
accepts the signature. Her phs. do not show it. - Note that the writing imitates
sixth-century letter forms. Threatte (1996) also accepts it and discusses the
word Αθεναιος, when the name Phintias was originally that of a foreigner.
