CAVI Lemma: BF Panathenaic prize amphora. Unattributed. Early fifth{1}.
CAVI Subject: A: Athena. B: Pancration?{2}.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: τον Αθενεθεν αθλον. B: above the heads of the figures, at right:
Πανκρατιον.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Smets, Binder. {2} CVA says: five bearded men, but see Brandt, p. 10.
CAVI Comments: Modern? The lettering on A is doubtful, the inscription on B likewise. CVA
says that the inscription on A is partly restored. Most of B is also restored
(J. Binder, who has seen the vase); that may include the inscription on B. This
is the only vase naming an event other than a race (Neils).
