CAVI Subject: MOUTH ONLY; NO DECORATION PRESERVED.
CAVI Inscriptions: ON THE TOPSIDE OF THE MOUTH, A CIRCULAR INSCRIPTION: OUTER CIRCLE:
κ[.](.)οσυομθε. INNER CIRCLE: σολα. GRAEF–LANGLOTZ, TEXT: καλος|εκ...οσλομθ.
PEEK: PERHAPS: κ[αλ]ος υος Θεσ[σ]αλο{2}. BEAZLEY: OUTER CIRCLE: Λοσθε
κ[αλ]ος{3}. INNER CIRCLE: κ[α]λος{3}. [[BUT INNER CIRCLE IS CLEARLY αλοσ, SO NO
'A.W.'.]]
CAVI Footnotes: {1} ADDENDUM TO AJA 35, IN WHICH B. GIVES SOME VI A.D. PARALLELS FOR λουσθε
καλως. {2} WITH Σ BY MISTAKE. {3} `WASH WELL,' THE ALABASTRON FOR COMMUNAL USE?
{3} THE KAPPA OF THE OUTER LINE DOING DOUBLE DUTY.
CAVI Comments: NOTE THAT GRAEF–LANGLOTZ AND PEEK RESTORE AS A PARTIAL SPIRAL, WHICH SHOULD
BE CONSIDERED. THE FOUR-STROKE SIGMA IS BOTHERSOME, AS IT LOOKS MORE LIKE A LOW
MU.
CAVI Number: 1443
