CAVI Inscriptions: A: Εως. Κεφαλος{1}. UNDER THE FOOT, GRR.: Π (ATTIC PI), ΛΙ, AND ΤΡ{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} SO MATHESON IN THE CAT. {2} SO JOHNSTON (1979); CVA HAS ΡΙΠ (ATTIC PI)
AND ΛΙ. JOHNSTON SAYS THIS READING IS DEFECTIVE; HE DOES NOT LIST THE VASE AS
HAVING AN IOTA AFTER ΤΡ, BUT I WONDER IF IT DOESN'T. FOR INTERPRETATIONS SEE
JOHNSTON (1979), PP. 197 (BUT DOES THE VASE HAVE ΠΟΙ(?)), 205 AND 231. PI IS A
COMMON POLYGNOTAN MARK (FOR π[οικιλοι](?)). THE FACS. IN JOHNSTON (1979), GIVES:
Τ ΡΙΠ ΛΙ, WITH NORMAL PI. [I THINK THE SPACE AFTER THE TAU IS IRRELEVANT. IS
THIS τρι PLUS π(?). FOR OTHER VASES WITH τρι SEE JOHNSTON (1979), 102/16B 27-29;
JOHNSTON DOES NOT EXPLAIN τρι. I HAVE NOT ENTERED THE OTHER VASES WITH THIS
MARK.]
CAVI Comments: "NOT GOOD, BUT SEEMS TO BE BY THE PAINTER HIMSELF" (BEAZLEY).
