CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary RF cup. Douris. Kleophrades, potter. First quarter fifth. Ca. 490
(Bothmer){1}.
CAVI Subject: Int.: a bearded man with his stick, standing before a seated and mourning
youth. A: Heracles and the sons of Eurytos. B: wrestlers and onlookers
(pankration?).
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: around the edge of the tondo, starting at the left heel of the man and
curving upward: Δορ̣ις εγ[ρ]αφσεν. hερμολυκος καλος{2}. On the reserved foot
profile: Κλεοφραδες : εποιεσεν : Αμασ̣ιδος :{3}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} 495-490: transitional between very early and settled styles (B.-O.). {2}
B.-O. puts punctuation between Douris' signature and Hermolykos kalos. The ph.
is not clear on this point, although it shows most of the other letters. {3}
parts of the Kleophrades signature show in the phs. B.-O.'s text gives all
deltas as normal.
CAVI Comments: Two frs. may belong: 83.AE.235.1-2. The inscriptions on the Int. are in
Dourian script; those of the potter's signature not certainly so. B.-O. 17:
Hermolykos = the pankratiast in Hdt. 9.105 (at Mycale)? For the potter, see
Malibu 80.AE.54. Four-stroke sigma, but three-stroke in the Kleophrades
signature.
