CAVI Lemma: BF/WG lekythos (outline). Near Sappho Painter (Haspels). End of sixth (?).
Ca. 500.
CAVI Subject: Hoplite to left between two Oriental archers facing him; to left of the right
archer, BF dog.
CAVI Inscriptions: Nonsense: to right of left archer's face, upwards: ι[υχι[ε (1. Readings from
Haspels: ιλυιι[ϝ.); above the dog, bearing slightly upward: (.)ιλυπ(1); to left
of the right archer's upper body and face, (between it and the hoplite's
shield), upwards: ικσυχιδ{2}. Readings from the photo.: ι(σ)υι ιε(τ){2}. ισυπ.
ιχσυ(σ)ιδ.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the number may be wrong. {2} a small gap in the inscription. Haspels on
p. 113: near Sappho Painter. "mock inscriptions in the manner of the Diosphos
Painter in his bolder mood." H. compares Euthymides for the three-figure group
and the attitudes of the archers. I would not compare these inscriptions with
the Diosphos Painter so much as with Euthymides. The [ I think are sigma S 11
(see chart in AttScr). - Earlier readings: nonsense: {1} readings from Haspels:
diagonally up: ιλυιι[ϝ. Horizontal: ιλυπ. As the first: ικσυχιδ. {2} readings
from photo.: ι(σ)υι ιε(τ) (witha a small gap). ισυπ. ιχσυ(σ)ιδ. E] {1} the first
letter is a raised horizontal stroke. I see no letter after the epsilon. But
there is a slight gap after the fourth letter, as noted before. {2} perhaps one
letter missing in the following break. [[Earlier, more complete version of
H.R.I.'s notes: " N] Bea. phs. 603 (dr.). Apparently not listed by Beazley.
==]]The number must be wrong, as 671 is a RF pelike by the Agrigento Ptr.,
ARV[2] 578/73 (there numbered St. 1529), Para. 513. Peredol’skaya (1967),
100/102, pls. 74,2, 75,3, 175,6 (facss.), with MercGrr. - Earlier readings:
nonsense: {1} readings from Haspels: diagonally up: ιλυιι[ϝ. Horizontal: ιλυπ.
As the first: ικσυχιδ. {2} readings from photo.: ι(σ)υι ιε(τ) (witha a small
gap). ισυπ. ιχσυ(σ)ιδ. `ltr' Attic. {2} : Delta disjointed. Epsilon near S 4.
Sigma 1, S 1 and S 12. Tau = gamma 4. Upsilon 3. Chi 1. These should be
superseded."]]
CAVI Comments: The tau resembles an Ionic gamma. The number is no doubt not Waldhauer's. —
CAVI Number: 7364
