  • Last Recorded Collection: Vatican City, Museo Gregoriano Etrusco Vaticano: G61
  • Publication Record: Beazley, J.D., Paralipomena (Oxford, 1971): 77.2
  • AVI Web: https://www.avi.unibas.ch/DB/searchform.html?ID=7281
  • AVI Record Number: 7025
  • CAVI Collection: Rome, Vatican G 61.
  • CAVI Lemma: BF lip cup. From Vulci. Group of Vatican G 61. Third quarter sixth.
  • CAVI Subject: [[Int.: circles.]] A, B, each: lip: two swans.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Handle zone, [[between palmettes]]: A: χαιρε και πι{α}ει τ[ε]νδε{1}. B: probably similar{2}. [[correct reading: χαιρεκαιπιαιετνδε]]
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} the intrusive (pointed) alpha is larger than the other letters, extending below the line. Para. has the last alpha as a delta; but Basel Market (M.M.). Para. 77/1 appears to have alpha. {2} B is not illustrated and not given in the text.
  • CAVI Comments: Beazley, in Para., reads: χαιρε και πιδιετναε. He compares this with the inscription on Basel Market (M.M.), Para. 77/1 [see above, no. 2107], which he reads χαιρε και πιαιετνδε, saying that both inscriptions are by the same hand. [I separate: πιαι ετνδε] He makes a further comparison with Brussels R 386 and `perhaps' with Sydney 53/14 (Para. 77/3 and no number), which have no error and which he does not say are by the same hand. He thought that the `perversion' on the first two vases was deliberate. I wonder if the two inscriptions are not copied from a misunderstood model by a semi-literate. [[Beazley–Magi p. 56: “L'iscrizione, χαιρεκαιπιαιετνδε, è una perversione, credo non involontaria (v. il n. 59) della nota formula χαῖρε καὶ πίει τήνδε, ‘salve e bevi questa’. Col τήνδε si sarà mentalmente unita una parola come, per es., πόσιν.”]]@@[[Diameter: 142.]]
