CAVI Inscriptions: A: hο [π]αλς καλ[ο]ς{1}. B: to right of his head: hο παυς, and to left of

CAVI Footnotes: {1} so Furtw.'s text; the reading uncertain.
CAVI Comments: Both παλς and παυς are common with this painter in the hο παις καλος
inscriptions; see Berlin 2334. The form παυς has been discussed as a true
alternative form for παις by Kretschmer (1894), 188-89, but since παλς is
clearly contaminated by καλος, I have wondered if παυς really existed. Threatte
(1996), 278-79 now shows that it did not. - Alphas, upsilons and sigmas are very
variable.
