  • CAVI Collection: Athens, Agora P 2766.
  • CAVI Lemma: Frs. of BF plate. From Athens, Agora G 6:3 (U). Kleiboulos Painter (Feytmans). First quarter fifth. 490-480.
  • CAVI Subject: Heracles and Amazons. Fr. b: Heracles. Fr. a: two Amazons.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Fr. a: behind Heracles (between quiver flap and rim): Ιο[--]{1}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} so Vanderpool. M.&P. read: [--]ολ., retr. This might give [Ι]ολ[εος], if the name was continued elsewhere, although no trace of him is preserved. For V.'s reading there are many possible restorations (e.g. Iolaos, Iodope, Ioxeia, Iobes, or a contemporary name: see V.'s discussion on p. 309). Note that the photo in Moore–Pease (1986) does not show the diagonal of the presumed lambda and the blank space that follows does not show other letters; hence it is unclear whether it is nonsense or a name.
  • CAVI Comments: Frs. a - b. From the rectangular rock-cut shaft.
