CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary RF Panathenaic amphora. From Athens, Agora B 15:1. Unattributed.
Last quarter fifth: near 410 (Corbett). Ca. 410 (Moore).
CAVI Subject: Procession of youths in himatia wearing olive wreaths, three on each side.:
A: preserves parts of three youths, the first two from the left carrying a tray,
the third was a flautist(1); a fourth probably preceded; between the second and
third youths is an olive tree. B: preserves parts of three youths, the first
from the left turning back and carrying a Panathenaic amphora.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: starting above the forehead of the first youth from the left: Κοπρευς.
Above the head of the flautist: Χρυσ[ογονος]{1}. B: above the amphora:
Ευπονπ[ος]{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the figure recognized by J. Binder as a flautist and identified with
Chrysogonos, Alcibiades' flute player. See Moore further. LGPN ii, s.v. 17
refers to I.E. Stephanis, Διονυσιακοι Τεχνιται (Herakleion 1988) 2637. {2}
Beazley, by letter, 1937. Bea. Arch. reads EUPOMP[OI]. [Seems doubtful to me.]
CAVI Comments: The inscriptions after the sketches in Moore (1997). Kopreus is known as a
mythical name; Eupompos is given by Pape as a human name. But this is probably
not a mythological scene (see also LGPN ii, s.vv. Ευπομπος and Κοπρευς). Scene
cannot be connected with the Herakleidai of Euripides (Riemann). Inscriptions in
white.
