CAVI Lemma: RF neck amphora with lid. Imitation of Altamura Painter (Beazley). Ca. 450
(Eichler).
CAVI Subject: A: a sacrifice (libation): a youth and a woman on either side of an altar. B:
similar, but with two women{1}.
CAVI Inscriptions: Under the foot, Gr.: νυγε,(2) or νυλε.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} Beazley suggests the youth on A may be Apollo, and the women on B may be
Hera and Hebe (the youth and one woman on B have scepters). {2} interpreted by
Johnston as νυ with γε, which he lists on 6 vases; he considers νυ an unknown
vase name. He does not explain the γε [probably reading it as λε for lekythoi?].
So: νυ[] λε[](?).
