CAVI Subject: Int.: horseman (jockey?) to left. A: heroes quarreling: two warriors, rushing
at each other, are separated by a bearded man with a spear{1}. B: man or youth
mounting a chariot.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: to left of the horse: [Μ]εμ^νο[ν], retr.{2}. Behind the rider: καλος,
not retr. A: right under the lip: [Με]μνον καλος Αμορ̣οχο{3}. B: right under the
lip: Με[μνον κα]λο̣ς.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} perhaps Odysseus and Ajax (ARV[2] 1622). {2} noted on p. 1622. The
horses' forelegs intervene. {3} I take the name to be misspelled and in the
genit. (father's name?). Beazley, ARV[2] 61, takes it to be a separate
inscription and says: "I do not understand the second inscription on A." Αμοροχο
does not show in the picture of CVA; the ph. in Esposito–Tommaso (which has most
of A) shows the letters ΑΜ only, at the right edge. The text in CVA gives the
inscription complete fore.
