CAVI Lemma: RF cup. Manner of Epeleios Painter (Hornbostel). Ca. 510-500 (Hornbostel).
CAVI Subject: Int.: (not ill.:) komos: a youth with his stick and his cloak on his arm
rushes to right, looks back. A: four naked warriors, all with shields, three
with Phrygian caps, one with helmet and greaves, two with horses (these have
peltae). B: naked warriors with helmets and shields fighting with spears.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: ho pais kalos (so the text, not ill.). A: the ph. shows letters along
the top margin, not mentioned in the text. B: the ph. shows nonsense letters on
the shield of a falling warrior: (.?)πα^(ι)(.)σ{1}.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} this somewhat resembles παις. The first letter is a slight dot, perhaps
not a letter; the fourth letter is a stroke ending in a blot; the fifth letter
resembles a gamma; the sigma is four-stroke. The leg of a warrior intervenes.
CAVI Comments: Hornbostel connects the vase with the `Coarser Wing'.
CAVI Number: 3805a
