CAVI Lemma: Fr. of kantharos. From Athens, Acropolis, West Slope. Unattributed.
Hellenistic. Third.
CAVI Subject: Ivy garland.
CAVI Inscriptions: Below the garland, horizontal Gr.: πι(.)(.) κακοδαιμων{1}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} V.&S. read: πιθ̣ι, Lang, πιη; pl. 31 has uncertain traces with a vertical
at the end. Could it be πιε̣ι̣?
CAVI Comments: For the first word, Lang prefers a hortatory subjunctive with iota omitted:
`Let the evil-spirited drink,' to a second person imperative with the adjective
in the vocative. I would prefer the latter: `drink, you fool!.' -An attempt at
erasing the inscription is visible.
CAVI Number: 0552
AVI Bibliography: Vanderpool and Stamires ms. — Lang (1976), 54/G 15, pl. 31 (dr.).
