CAVI Subject: Preparations for a party: Int.: a youth tying his sandal; at left, his stick;
at right, sponge and aryballos. A-B: visit to hetaerae: five bearded men; six
women; under each handles: a dog.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: to right of the youth's upper body: Καλ[λ]ιας{1}. A: above the head of
a seated girl tying her sandal: Ροδο[--]{2}. Behind a standing man who faces
right, Λι[χας](?){3}. To left of a girl holding out a wreath: Α[ν]τιφανε. To
left and right of the right man's head: Αριστομυμος, for Αριστονυμος. B: to
right of the girl at left (seated with wool, and facing a servant with a wool
basket): Αφρ[οδ]ισ[ια]. To right of of the seated female flautist's middle, at
some distance: ο Βολε{4}. Under the foot, Gr.: hΥΔ, retr.?{5}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Bothmer; no longer completely visible (the cup is now covered with a
plastic surface). {2} probably not Ροδο, but Ροδο̆[ν] or Ροδ[πις]. {3} so
Auktion; I did not see these letters. {4} = ὦ Βούλη; for names with ὦ, see
AttScr and Threatte (1996), 721. Βούλη as a name: see REG, Bull. Ep., no. 33,X;
LGPN i, s.v. {5} the first letter resembles a closed heta: probably hυδ[ρια];
not in Johnston (1979).
CAVI Comments: For the shape see AK 27, n. 1. The surface is in poor condition as the cup
has been refired (Bothmer). For the identification of Kallias see Shapiro; for
that of Aristonymos, see Immerwahr. For the spelling of Αριστομυμος, see
Threatte (1996), 756.
