CAVI Lemma: BF/RF cup. From Vulci. Painter of London E 2{1}. Late sixth.
CAVI Subject: Int.: youth lifting a pointed amphora. Around the tondo, BF: ships. Ext.:
komos: A: two youths dancing; between them, a pointed amphora. B: similar.
CAVI Inscriptions: Nonsense: Int.: to the youth's left: νχδει. On his right: (ν)δειυο. A: to
left of the left youth's head: (ν)δεν. To left of the right youth's face:
(ν)δει. To right of his body: α(.)ε{2}. Between his legs: δευ. Starting from the
youth's head: (ν)α(ε){3}. To right of his body: ναι. To left of the right
youth's face: (ν)αει. To right of his body: αιοιου{4}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} related to the Nikoxenos Painter. {2} The photo shows a raised horizontal
line for the second letter. {3} the epsilon is smeared. {4} perhaps διοσ̣οσ̣(?).
CAVI Comments: Typical Leagran nonsense. Delta and omicron are hard to distinguish; the
reversed nu's are probably sigma's lying sideways. Cf. also Bonn 315, by the
same painter.
