CAVI Lemma: WG lekythos. From Pikrodafni (ancient Halimous), Attica. Achilles Painter.
Second quarter fifth. Early. Ca. 460. 460/55-450 (Oakley).
CAVI Subject: Woman (nurse?) handing a baby to a seated woman.
CAVI Inscriptions: Above the infant [sic?] and below the rim, stoich. left-aligned three-liner:
Δρομιππος καλος Δρομοκλειδο. {1}
CAVI Footnotes: {1} the inscription is to right of the left woman's face, close to the top
margin and thus above the baby.
CAVI Comments: Second white used. - Oakley 63-64 thinks this is an everyday scene, whereas
Reilly (1989), 426-427 had interpreted the scene as a wedding scene, with the
bride being handed the παις αμφιθαλης. - Ionic alphabet. -Oakley, p. 11, wrongly
states that the diphthong ει in Δρεομοκλειδο is represented either by epsilon or
iota (his text is unclear), but the ph. shows a certain ει.
