CAVI Lemma: Fragmentary BG skyphos (subgeometric). From Athens. Unattributed. Ca. 650
(Young, Jeffery, Lang).
CAVI Subject: A reserved band in the handle zone, otherwise originally BG.
CAVI Inscriptions: Horizontally on the side, starting just below one handle, Gr. before firing
(Young)(1): Θαρ[ρ]ιο ειμι ποτεριον.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} consequently under the glaze. A bespoken piece.
CAVI Comments: As Lang shows in the index, the name is Θαρριας (not Tharios); cf. PA
6587-88, 6592. It is not quite certain that the inscription is complete at the
end. The BG has mostly flaked off. Shear's text is wrong in several ways. -Alpha
with horizontal coss bar and curved top. Cartwheel theta.
CAVI Number: 0313
