CAVI Lemma: BF neck amphora. From Vulci. Painter of Würzburg 210 (Leagros Group){1}. Last
quarter sixth. 510-500.
CAVI Subject: A: Heracles playing the cithara, with Hermes and Athena. B: Dionysus with two
pairs of satyr and maenad.
CAVI Inscriptions: Leagran nonsense: to Hermes' lower left: (ν)δεακ(.). Above Heracles' head:
(ν)χδιασ{2}. To left of bema: χδε(α). Above the bema: χδοδ(ε). To the right of
the bema: υαχν{2}. To Athena's right: υχοερ(α){3}. Under the foot, Grr.:
ligature including pointed beta {2} and retr. pi with cross stroke: see Johnston
(1979), 126/5E 1 and 127/6E 3; Hackl (1909), 45/508.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} see ABV 370/136, where he is said to be near the Acheloos Painter; but on
pp. 369 and earlier, on p. 357, Beazley speaks of the `Group of Würzburg 210.'
{2} Furtw., text. {3} not in Furtw. Gamma and alpha cannot be distinguished in
some cases; the same is true of nu and sigma.
CAVI Comments: Furtwängler's readings are not very accurate. I am not sure that all
inscriptions are listed here. B is not inscribed.
