(Williams).
CAVI Subject: Int.: a young komast playing the flutes. Ext.: symposium: A: three youths: at
left, a youth kneels on a couch and wields a(n empty) wineskin to hit his
companion who is dancing in the center; at right, a youth faces left, leaning on
his stick and playing the flutes. B: two youths and a flute girl.
CAVI Inscriptions: Nonsense: Int.: to left of the flautist's back: ρε[.]ι, retr. Above the
flutes: νονο{1}. A: υνονν{2}. ναν. hhνονο. (The last two from Williams). B:
similar, on either side of the flute girl's head: νον ννον{3}. To right of the
scene, partly under one handle, a large water bucket (kados); on the body:
καλος{4}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Williams in CVA reads: hο πα[ις]. δε[.]ι, retr. Nonsense? {2} ννον,
Williams. {3} my reading. Smith has: χνονχνον. {4} Smith, Williams.
CAVI Comments: Note that the nonsense inscriptions seem to be connected with the flautists
or the flute case: do they represent music? But since on the Ext. they are
widely spaced, this is not certain. The vase was dirty when I saw it.
