CAVI Footnotes: {1} K., P. 29 ARGUES ABOUT THE DIGAMMAS, THINKING (WITH RUIJGH'S APPROVAL),
THAT THEY ARE MISWRITTEN KAPPAS. IT IS TRUE THAT THEY LOOK A BIT LIKE THAT ON
THIS VASE. [I WONDER IF WE ARE NOT DEALING HERE AND ELSEWHERE WITH LETTERS OF AN
INDETERMINED SHAPE (I.E., LETTERS THE PAINTER DID NOT KNOW THE PROPER
IDENTIFICATION OF) AS I THINK THERE ARE NO `GOOD' KAPPAS IN THESE INSCRIPTIONS.]
{2} THE PHOTO IN CVA SEEMS TO SHOW ONE INSCRIPTION ON B, BUT THAT ONE IS
PROBABLY RESTORED.
CAVI Comments: CVA'S READINGS ARE NOT WORTH REPEATING. THE VASE HAS SINCE BEEN CLEANED.
