CAVI Lemma: BF NECK AMPHORA. FROM SOUTH ITALY. UNATTRIBUTED{1}. FIRST QUARTER FIFTH.
490-480 (OHLY-DUMM).
CAVI Subject: A: CHARIOT TO RIGHT; BEHIND, ATHENA TO LEFT. B: DIONYSUS AND SATYRS.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: NEAR ATHENA'S HEAD: [Α]λκμεον{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} LISTED AMONG VERY LATE STANDARD NECK-AMPHORAE II, VARIOUS; THE DATES OF
THESE ARE SAID TO BE BETWEEN 480-450. {2} THE READING IS A COMBINATION OF
BEAZLEY'S AND M. OHLY-DUMM'S READINGS; THE VASE WAS FORMERLY REPAINTED AND
DAMAGED IN A FIRE IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR; I THANK E. KUNZE-GöTTE FOR SENDING ME
HER READING WHICH AGREES WITH OHLY-DUMM'S.
CAVI Comments: THIS IS THE NAME OF THE CHARIOTEER; THE VASE IS PROBABLY IN MEMORY OF A
CHARIOT VICTORY. BEAZLEY SUGGESTED A MEMORIAL FOR THE OLYMPIC VICTORY OF ALCMEON
I IN 592 B.C.; I SUGGEST POSSIBLE CONTEMPORARY IDENTIFICATIONS IN PRAKT. AND A
VICTORY OTHER THAN AN OLYMPIC ONE, PERHAPS EVEN IN THE PANATHENAEA. FOR ANOTHER
VASE WITH ALCMEON SEE NOW C. BRON IN AK 1997.
