CAVI Lemma: Fr. of large BG amphora. From Athens. Unattributed. First quarter sixth.
CAVI Subject: Undecorated.
CAVI Inscriptions: {1} Gr. at one edge, cut so that the letters are only half preserved in
height: ΕΡ̣ΡΙΙΙΙ{1}. {2} horizontally in the center of the sherd, upside down in
relation to {1} , Gr.: Πραχσ[ι]νε vac.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so V.&S.; Lang reads: Ευ̣ρυ̣τε̣, a mythical name, but the dr. on pl. 7
shows: ΕΙ̣ΡΡΙΙ (all letters except the epsilon incomplete). A mythical name is
unlikely here.
CAVI Comments: Names-on-sherd. The sherd first broken (no doubt accidentally) then reused.
None of the readings of {1} seem reliable. Πραξινη is the fem. form of Πραξινος
(see LGPN ii). Πρηξινος is known from Troezen, Hdt. 7.180 and the Suda (Pape).
CAVI Number: 0553
AVI Bibliography: Vanderpool and Stamires ms. — Lang (1976), 18/D 10, pl. 7 (dr.).
