CAVI Subject: Int.: BF: warrior and a snake. A, B, each: RF: nose between eyes.
CAVI Inscriptions: Under one handle, Gr.: hισχυλος :* εποιεσεν{2}. Under the foot, Gr.in large
letters: αϝτιμ, retr. Not in Johnston (1979){3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} see ARV[2] 1630, top, under 1 bis. {2} three-stroke punctuation (short
strokes). {3} not certain that this is one Gr., as the last three letters are
much fainter than the first two. Connection with τιμη (price)?
CAVI Comments: Ex Cambridge, Ricketts and Shannon. - For Gr. signatures, see Immerwahr
(1984), 343, n. 14; now superseded by Cohen who has a long discussion of
Hischylos' signatures on pp. 57ff.: similar Gr. signatures of Hischylos under a
handle are: Vatican, Astarita 297, ARV[2] 161/2; Swiss Market (Koutoulakis),
ARV[2] 1621/40 bis and 1630/1 bis. Only Hischylus signatures are found in this
location as Grr.
