CAVI Subject: A: Heracles and Antaios, between Athena and Hermes and a portico with Ge and
Poseidon. B: three horsemen; two hounds.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: nonsense: to right of Athena's forehead: π^ε(.)^νγ{1}. To right of the
left wrestler's body: νχιδε. Under the foot, Grr.: ΛΗ [[lig.]] and opposite:
κυλιφα : κ. I.e., κυλιφα[κτοι] 20.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} my reading; CVA wrongly reads Α.ΕNΑ, i.e. Α[θ]ενα, which it somewhat
resembles. A hand and a spear intervene.
CAVI Comments: = 1843.11-3.30. Johnston (1979), 221ff., argues that the ligature is not a
price inscription as claimed by Amyx and Jonkees.
