CAVI Footnotes: {1} CF. δεφομαι (BEAZLEY (1931–2)). {2} CF. IL. 5.759-60: οι δε εκηλοι
τερπονται (RICHTER AS A SECOND SUGGESTION, ACCEPTED BY BEAZLEY IN AJA). {3} FROM
ψωλή. {4} BEAZLEY ORIGINALLY DOUBTED THIS SIGNATURE [PROBABLY BECAUSE THE
INCISION CAUSED MUCH FLAKING OF THE GLAZE], BUT LATER RECANTED; SEE JHS 52.
COHEN POINTS OUT THAT THE BG SEGMENT UNDER THE HANDLE WAS PLANNED FOR AN
INSCRIPTION (WHICH WAS EXECUTED AFTER FIRING); THIS BG SEGMENT IMITATES
CORINTHIAN PRACTICE. {5} Hευς ετι, "NOBLE PERSEUS FURTHERMORE" (RICHTER), BUT
BEAZLEY RIGHTLY CONSIDERS THE LETTERS MEANINGLESS (BSA 32). {6} Hερμες Hοδιτες
HAS OCCURRED TO ME, BUT THE LETTERS ARE IN THE WRONG SEQUENCE AND THE LAST
LETTER SEEMS TO BE AN IOTA. τῃ Ερμης οδι (RICHTER) IS HARDLY RIGHT. {7} HAMPE'S
ATTEMPT TO READ THESE INSCRIPTIONS AS THE CRIES OF CRANES (CF. IL. 3,1 FF.) IS
NOT CONVINCING.
