CAVI Lemma: Fr. of skyphos{1}. From Athens. Ismenos. Third quarter sixth (?). 525 (?)
(LGPN).
CAVI Subject: Decoration not preserved.
CAVI Inscriptions: Under the foot: hαιδε hας Ισ(μ)ενος εγραφε.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} from the foot, probably of Corinthian type; recalls skyphoi by
Nikosthenes, ABV 233-34, xi (ABV). {2} add to ABV 347, Signed Strays.
CAVI Comments: Beazley says that the mu was corrected into beta and that perhaps the three
preceding letters were also corrections (from three iotas)? One would have
suspected that beta was corrected to mu. The name Ismenos ought to be Theban; it
is mostly mythical. What is the (feminine) name for the pot?
CAVI Number: 0207
