CAVI Inscriptions: B: TO THE RIGHT OF THE SPECTATORS FROM THE TOP MARGIN DOWN: κάδος το̃ι
κυβιστι τοι{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} SHAPIRO THINKS THAT B SHOWS A PANATHENAIC AGON OF AN UNKNOWN KIND. {2}
CVA READS THE FIRST WORD καλῶς, BUT THE THIRD LETTER IS NOT A LAMBDA. THE PHOTO
SHOWS IT TO BE SIMILAR TO A TRIANGULAR ALPHA (S 2 ON THE CHART IN ATTSCR), BUT
WITH THE DIAGONAL EXTENDING A BIT FURTHER DOWN. IS THERE NO REPAINTING?
KRETSCHMER READ καλῶς τῷ κυβιστῇ τοι, EXPLAINING THAT κυβιστής = κυβιστητής (SEE
ALSO LSJ). καδος WAS DE WITTE'S READING. SHAPIRO READS: καλος το̃ι κυβιστε̅το̃ι,
`GOOD FOR THE TUMBLER', MEANING I THINK καλῶς. THE INSCRIPTION APPEARS TO BE
ISSUING FROM THE MOUTHS OF THE SPECTATORS.

EUANDRIA COMPETITION AT THE PANATHENAIA RECONSIDERED,' ANCIENT WORLD 15 (1987)
