CAVI Lemma: RF Nikosthenic neck amphora. From Etruria. Oltos. Pamphaios, potter. Last
quarter sixth.
CAVI Subject: Neck: A: a Nereid. B: similar. Body: A: Menelaus and Helen. B: Chiron with
the infant Achilles. Handles: A, B, each: a nude warrior running.
CAVI Inscriptions: Body: A: Μενειγος{1}. Ελενε{2}. Φαιφαιος εποιεσεν{3}. B: Χιρον. To left of
Achilles' face: Αχιλ[λ]ευς.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} for Meneleos? So the text of CVA; but this is surely an error, either in
CVA, or by a restorer of the vase. Or was it miswritten by Oltos? {2} I do not
trust this reading either. {3} after ARV[2].
