CAVI Lemma: BF hydria. From Etruria. Priam Painter. Last quarter sixth. Early (Beazley).
CAVI Subject: Shoulder: two chariots racing. Body: Priam's chariot harnessed.
CAVI Inscriptions: Shoulder: to right of the left charioteer's head: ελα τοδε. Below his horses:
νιπιον{1}. To right of the right charioteer's head: κινι(α){2}. Below his
horses: Nικιας κ[α]λος. Body: to right of the Oriental's (Paris') face: Παρι[ς]
καλος. Above the bearded man leading a horse: Τελες (retr.) v. καλος{3}. To
right of the horses' bodies: κιονις{4}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} is a name hidden here? {2} CVA reads Κινια[ς]; or a mock inscription
related to κινειν? {3} Beazley in ABV says rightly that this does not refer to
the man, but is a regular kalos-inscription. {4} is this nonsense or the name of
a horse? {5} only the last 5 words show in O.'s photo, and those not at all
well.
CAVI Comments: Small letters. The readings are from CVA. The three `meaningless'
inscriptions are probably miswritten names, not nonsense. Alvarez-Ossorio has
some very peculiar readings: First chariot: πλατοοκ-νιγιον. (Ionic gamma.)
κινια-νικιοσκιος. Παρι - καλος - Τελες - καλος - Χιονις{5}.
