CAVI Comments: DELLA SETA REFERS TO THE VASE PAINTER KITTOS AND COMPARES HESYCH., S.V.
κιττος, LACONIAN FOR καλος; HE THINKS THE INSCRIPTIONS WERE WRITTEN BY A
FOREIGNER IN AN ATTIC WORKSHOP. BUT THE WORD IS NOT IN LSJ, NOR IS κισσος THERE
GIVEN THIS MEANING. I THINK IT SHOULD BE A NAME: PAPE HAS BOTH Κισσος AND
Κιττος. LGPN II HAS Κισσος IN 5-4 B.C. IN POXY AND ISOC.; ALSO IN THE 3RD CENT.
A.D.; IT ALSO HAS Κιττος WHICH IS MUCH MORE COMMON FROM THE 4TH CENT. B.C. ON.
L.-H. DOES NOT DISCUSS THIS. THE ALPHA IS UNEXPLAINED. ATTIC SIGMAS.
