CAVI Lemma: BF PANATHENAIC AMPHORA. FROM VULCI. SWING PAINTER{1}. THIRD QUARTER SIXTH.
CA. 530.
CAVI Subject: A: ATHENA BETWEEN HERMES AND A BEARDED MAN{2}. B: THE WINNER IN THE HORSE
RACE: A BOY JOCKEY(3) ON A HORSE, LED BY A BEARDED MAN AND FOLLOWED BY A YOUTH
CARRYING A TRIPOD.
CAVI Inscriptions: B: FROM THE MOUTH OF THE MAN, CURVING DOWN: Δυν[ν]εικετυ : Hιπ[π]ος : νικαι.
[UNDER FOOT,] GR.: Hϝ. SEE JOHNSTON (1979), 22 AND FIG. 14,B (FACS).
CAVI Footnotes: {1} SO BEAZLEY; NEAR THE PRINCETON PAINTER, BöHR. {2} SHAPIRO THINKS THE MAN
IS DYSNIKETOS AND HERMES IS GREETING HIM, NOT ATHENA WHO IS A STATUE (ATHENA
PROMACHOS). {3} WEBSTER (1972), 64 SUGGESTED THE JOCKEY IS DYNNIKETOS' SON; AND
SHAPIRO THINKS D. MIGHT BE A NICKNAME RATHER THAN A PROPER NAME, SEE N. 114. I
DOUBT THIS: THE VASE COMMEMORATES THE OMEN OF THE NAME. {4} SHAPIRO ACCEPTS
WEBSTER'S ANSWER TO BEAZLEY'S STATEMENT THAT IT CANNOT BE A VICTORY AT THE
PANATHENAEA, SINCE THE PRIZE ON B IS A TRIPOD: WEBSTER HAD SAID THAT THE TRIPOD
WAS HERE A GENERALIZED TOKEN OF VICTORY; ALL OTHER ELEMENTS FIT THE PANATHENAEA.
CAVI Comments: = 1849.11-22.1. - Δυνεικετυ FOR Δυννικετο = Δυσνικητου; SEE IMMERWAHR (1971),
AND THREATTE (1980), 260. THE SAME SP. IN IG I/2. 1002 CORRECTED TO OMICRON (CF.
THREATTE (1980), 239). Δυννικητος: SEE PA 4580, IG II(2) 1436,13, HESP. 7 (1938)
281/16, A 31. -PROBABLY NOT A PANATHENAIC VICTORY, SINCE TRIPODS WERE NOT
AWARDED THERE AS PRIZES (NEILS); BUT KYLE (1992), 207 N. 120 SAYS: "POSSIBLY IN
THE PANATHENAIA CA. 530-525."{4}.
