CAVI Lemma: RF psykter. From Campagnano. Oltos. Last quarter sixth. Ca. 510. 520-510
(Richter).
CAVI Subject: Athletes with a flutist and with trainers.
CAVI Inscriptions: A youth playing flutes; under his arms: Σμικυ[θος]. A youth preparing to
jump; to left of his middle: hαλούμενος εἶσι, retr., complete. Behind his back:
(Δ)οροθεος. A bearded man crowning a boy; to right of his face: Κλεαινετος. To
right of the boy's back: Επαινετος, and at the lower left: καλος, retr., i.e.,
Επαινετος | καλος{1}. A bearded trainer; between him and the next figure:
Αλκετες. A youth with a discus; between his legs and the next figure's:
Αντιφανες. A bearded trainer; from his face: Α[ντ]ι[μ]ε̣[ν]ες, retr. Behind his
head, toward the next figure's face, but not retr.: πομε{2}. To right of his
lower body and starting from the buttock of the next figure: χασ.[.](ο),
retr.{3}. A youth with a javelin; to right of his body, below his raised elbow:
Βα[τρ]αχος.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Richter, but not so listed by Beazley. It is portrait-kalos. {2} Beazley
in ARV[2] suggests πῶ με, `drink me', cf. Cl. Rev. 57, 102-103, but I think it
is meaningless. Richter says that a letter may be missing at the beginning, but
I thought this unlikely. {3} χασκ̣ο̣, Richter. χασκο = χάσκω, `I open my mouth
wide', Beazley in ARV[2]. The fourth letter is the slightly slanted top of a
stroke, as in lambda or upsilon; it could be part of a kappa. After it, there is
space for a letter. The last letter is Ο, Δ(?), or Α(?). I take this word to be
nonsense also. {4} one fr.; see CF, 33/3.
CAVI Comments: + Rome, Villa Giulia{4}. Richter notes that Dorotheos and Batrachos occur
together on a cup by the early Panaitios Painter, Paris, Cab. Méd. 523. On the
construction of hαλούμενος εἶσι, see AttScr.
