CAVI Subject: Voting for the arms of Achilles: Int.: one Greek voting; pebbles on the
altar; Athena. A: similar, but with four voters. B: the aftermath of voting: at
left, Ajax being comforted by a companion; Odysseus wearing the armor; a youth
offering a sash to Odysseus. Under each handle a squarish object (chest,
altar?).
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: nonsense: on either side of Athena's head: νοσν ^ αλοσν (fig. g). A:
between Athena's spear and the head of the third voter: καλος (fig. h). B:
between the heads of Odysseus and the fourth figure: nonsense: κοσν (fig. i). On
the object between sides A and B, near the top, in BG: καλος (fig. j and pl.
164,3). Under the foot, Grr.: Χ and ΣΟ with three-stroke sigma and square
omicron.
CAVI Comments: Small and fine writing. The nonsense words seem to be imitations of kalos:
illiterate? The facss. in CVA are poor.
