CAVI Lemma: BF lekythos. Edinburgh Painter. Ca. 500.
CAVI Subject: The child Achilles brought to Chiron by his father.
CAVI Inscriptions: Benndorf saw traces of an inscription beside the head of a female at left and connected them with καλος ναιχι. Beazley did not see these traces and read:καλος. Πε[λε]ιδες = Achilles and ναιχι{1}. Hence Peleus and Chiron are not inscribed.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} after Beazley in AJA.
CAVI Comments: Miswritten by an illiterate? - I do not know the pertinence of καλος and
(twice) ναιχι to the figures.
