καλος{1}. UNDER THE FOOT, Ε WITH THE TOP HORIZONTAL EXTENDED. SEE JOHNSTON

CAVI Footnotes: {1} ALTHOUGH THE FACS. SEPARATES THE WORDS, THE PHOTO SHOWS THAT THEY ARE NOT
SEPARATED; NEVERTHELESS THE καλος SHOULD REFER TO HERACLES. FACS. AND PHOTO.:
BOTH REFER TO CVA. I HAVE NO NOTE ON LEROUX'S FACS. {2} THE MARK UNDER FOOT
SHOULD BE A GR. JOHNSTON (1979), P. 216 SUGGESTS EITHER LAMBDA PLUS EPSILON OR
TAU PLUS EPSILON.
CAVI Comments: LEROUX ALSO READS Αρτεμιδος καλος AS ONE INSCRIPTION, SEPARATING THE WORDS,
HOWEVER; HE SAYS THE INSCRIPTION IS ABOVE, BETWEEEN ARTEMIS AND HERACLES,
VERTICALLY DOWN. TAILED RHO IF THE FACS. IN CVA IS TO BE TRUSTED.
