(Moore).
CAVI Subject: Komos: youth carrying a large wine amphora and holding a jug. Youth looks
back gesticulating. On the wall, a flute case. Most of the figured panel is
preserved.
CAVI Inscriptions: On left side of panel, Gr., down: [--]ν̣ος(?){1}. In field, two Dipp.: to
left of carrier's back: κ(ο)(ο){2}. To left of companion, similar: κ(α)λοιε{3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so Hesp.; I though I saw [--]σος. Moore's dr., fig. 34, gives an unclear
trace for the first letter, then -ος with 3-stroke sigma. Moore says: `to left
of panel'. {2} my reading, the omicrons both miswritten; not clear that
complete. Hesp. 27 says, illegible, "perhaps also καλος." Moore's sketch on p.
230 gives: Ι)ΙΩ. [sic!] {3} clearly for καλος. The sketch: κ(α)λοε, without the
iota. Cf. my example of kaloe in AttScr.
CAVI Comments: Dipp. in white. Moore follows Beazley's att. to Myson. Illiterate
inscriptions. The Gr. not in Lang (1976). -Robertson: "... seems to have only a
superficial resemblance to the artist's [Myson's] drawing." R. implies that
Berge (in her book on Myson) had difficulties fitting the vase in.
