CAVI Footnotes: {1} the earliest alphabetic inscription found in Cyprus. {2} complete,
although Delt. on p. 610 reads: Φρασ(ι)ο, no doubt meaning the genit. of
Φρασιας.
CAVI Comments: Not a real SOS-amphora; it has two `eyes' instead; it is unclear whether the
inscription is Attic or not. There are no letter forms that could not be Attic.
