CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF cup. From Kerch. Meidias Painter (Beazley (1950)). Ca. 400.
CAVI Subject: A: two right-hand figures (parts).
CAVI Inscriptions: Θησευς. Οπλης(?){1}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Beazley says: "This reading is questionable. Stephani read ...ΩΛΗΣ (CR.
1869, p. 181); the omega, he says, is not certain and alpha is also possible;
before it is a trace of another letter, then the fragment ends. I have no note
of the fragment, but looking at the careful drawing in Stephani's plate I
wondered if ΟΠΛΗΣ might not be read." Hoples was a son of Ion and father-in-law
of Aegeus.
CAVI Comments: In AJA, Beazley attributes the frs. to the Meidias Painter, but they are not
listed in ARV[2] or Para.
CAVI Number: 7332
