  • CAVI Collection: London E 298.
  • CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary RF Nolan amphora From Nola. Nikon Painter (HRI). Second quarter fifth. Ca. 460.
  • CAVI Subject: A: Nike at a tripod on a three-stepped base.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: A: on the top step of the tripod base: Ακαμαντις | ενικ̣α φυλε. On the bottom step: Γλαυκων καλος.
  • CAVI Comments: Pickard-Cambridge(2), Davies and Webster think Glaukon won a choral victory of his tribe, but Glaukon is a very common kalos-name in this period (see AttScr (1990), 100 n. 10). The same(?) victory is remembered on Athens, Acr. 504 (RF). The victory inscription is Attic, the kalos-inscription, Ionic. The same handwriting is found on Boston 68.163 [see Para. 402-403], which has Γλαυκων καλος, Ionic, on a herm and Charmides kalos in the field in Attic letters. Since that vase is attributed to the Nikon Painter, I think London E 298 should also be, as the letter forms are identical.
