Third quarter sixth.
CAVI Subject: Lip: BG. Handle zone: no figured decoration.
CAVI Inscriptions: Handle zone: nonsense: A: mock inscription: [--]τν>οπ[--]. B: similar:
[--]ο(.)ν(.)ρ̣ν vacat. The reading of B is quite uncertain.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} without eyes.
CAVI Comments: Squat letters rather high in the handle zone on A; on B, they are better
centered vertically. Beazley lists two more cups of similar shape and
decoration: Civitavecchia 1398 and Vatican (Para. 102/41 and 42). Both have mock
inscriptions. A fourth cup is published by Pierro 154/41, pl. 52/41 [it must be
from Tarquinia].
