φευγει; COMPARES παῦσαι ON CAB. MéD. 523, NOW INVISIBLE UNDER REPAINTINGS, SEE
HOPPIN (1919), I, 427/8, BUT I DO NOT HAVE THE WORD IN THE CAVI ENTRY.
CAVI Comments: CORINTHIAN ALPHABET. CVA THINKS THE DECORATION AND THE PICTURES GENUINE,
SPECULATING ON A TRAVELING CORINTHIAN ARTIST WORKING IN ATHENS. PAYNE, IN NC,
CONSIDERED BOTH THE FIGURES AND THE INSCRIPTIONS MODERN. BEAZLEY, IN PARA.,
STATES THAT THE INSCRIPTIONS ARE MODERN; PRESUMABLY HE CONSIDERED THE FIGURES
GENUINE. - CVA ALSO COMPARES LOUVRE MNC 333, SAID TO COME FROM THE SAME
CORINTHIAN TOMB; IT ALSO HAS PECULIAR INSCRIPTIONS IN DILUTED BROWN.
CAVI Number: 6707
