CAVI Lemma: Fr. of RF cup. Related to Wider Circle of Nikosthenes Painter{1}. Last
quarter sixth. Ca. 510 (Langlotz, Hölscher).
CAVI Subject: Int.: lower leg of a warrior; at left, an unexplained rectangular object
(part of a wall?). A: Achilles and Ajax playing a board game: at left, part of a
crouching leg and of an arm with the hand holding a game piece; a shield. From
the right comes the hand of the right-hand figure, holding another piece. In the
middle, a low base with eight pieces on it.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: nonsense: on the `wall': ο̣ϝ{2}. Elsewhere: τεαγ{3}. A: on the stone
base, in BG: σϝσ(ο)(.){4}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Beazley compares Boston 08.30a (ARV[2] 135/(a)). {2} so Langlotz' text.
(.)αι̣, CVA. {3} Langlotz' text; he conjectures Leagros, but also says that the
inscription is probably nonsense. CVA has the same letters. {4} the last letter
consists of two dots, one above the other. This reading is from a photo, but my
note from Langlotz' plate differs and resembles more the second inscription on
the Int.
CAVI Comments: The inscriptions are hard to read.
