CAVI Lemma: BF Gordion cup. From Vulci. Sokles Painter{1}. Sokles, potter. Third quarter
sixth. 550-540.
CAVI Subject: Int.: Heracles and the Lion.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: at top center, curved: hερ[α]κλες{2}. Handle zone: A: Σοκλ̣ες εποιεσεν.
B: Σοκλες εποιεσεν{3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the painter is reported in Para.; our vase was attributed by Schauenburg.
{2} so Leroux' text on p. 30; the ph. may show a part of the right hand bar of
the alpha. hερ[ακ]λες, CVA. The lambda of Herakles is of type 3 but the short
bar is almost at a right angle to the vertical. {3} the facs. of the signature
on Leroux' p. 30 (which refers to both signatures) shows some letters below the
sigma of epoiesen, which I do not understand.
