- CAVI Lemma: Plain lip cup. From Elche{1}. Unattributed. Third quarter sixth. Mid-sixth

plain.

- CAVI Footnotes: {1} Elche is 25 km South of Alicante in SE Spain.
- CAVI Comments: The inscription is not clearly visible. The heta is in a break (there is
definitely a letter there) and lambda and sigma are clear. The inscription is
therefore Attic and so must be the vase, although its inside decoration
resembles Ionian cups (Olmos refers to Samian cups and to R. Ramos, El Museo
Arqueologico de Elche (1987) 57). ho pais kalos on a LM cup is most unusual and
this is one of the earliest appearances of this formula. Cf. perhaps Athens,
Agora P 12, fr. of a BF (LM?) cup; and Athens, Agora P 17,827, Gr. on a BG
skyphos of the mid-sixth cent. (AttScr (1990), [[no. 296, p.]] 56).
