CAVI Lemma: BF lip cup. From Corinth. Unattributed. Third quarter sixth.
CAVI Subject: Lip: A, B, each: panther.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: nonsense: lip: to left of the panther, diagonally: πεχευσ(.), retr.; at his right: μεχνλ. Handle zone: χεκϝεκεκπ(λ)οπ(λ)ϝκπ. B: said to be similar.
CAVI Comments: Beazley notes that a lip cup in the market has inscriptions similarly disposed as London B 405 [i.e., diagonally on either side of the picture]. The subjects of the cup in the market are: A, B, each: rider. I have not entered the market cup, as Beazley gives no further particulars. The lambdas resemble the Argive shape.
