CAVI Lemma: RF stamnos. Polygnotos. Third quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: A: Dionysus seated, with Ariadne and two satyrs. B: three maenads.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: to upper right of the head of a lyre-playing satyr: [--]μος. Above
Dionysus' head: Nιονυσος{1}. For Διονυσος. Between the heads of Ariadne(?) and a
satyr who grabs her arm: Αραιν{2}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} so Beazley's dr.; a note attached to it refers to the form Nιονιος at
Zante. But here I think the name is simply miswritten. {2} so the dr.; the
letters are shown between her head and the satyr's raised arm; to left of the
head and right of the arm the space is left vacant, otherwise one might read:
[--]αραιν[--]. [The inscription must be incomplete and is perhaps miswritten for
Αριαδνε.]
