CAVI Comments: Non-Attic alphabet. Disjointed letters. The Gr. probably Euboean (or
Boeotian?). Delta D-shaped. Attic lambda and sigma. `Red' chi. Is the second Gr.
a mark to fit the lid to the body? Then it should appears also on the pyxis, if
the two are correctly paired. - The vase was a gift. Are the women related?
