CAVI Lemma: RF NECK AMPHORA. FROM VULCI. EUPHRONIOS. LAST QUARTER SIXTH. 510-500. 515-510
(`EUPHRONIOS').
CAVI Subject: NECK: SYMPOSIUM: A: A YOUTH ON A COUCH TO LEFT BUT LOOKING RIGHT (AT THE
COMPANION ON B?), WHILE PLAYING KOTTABOS. B: A YOUTH ON A COUCH TO LEFT, SINGING
AND PLAYING THE LYRE.
CAVI Inscriptions: A: BETWEEN THE RAISED CUP AND THE BACK OF THE YOUTH'S HEAD: Λεαγρος, AND
ABOVE THE HEAD: καλος. BELOW THE HAND HOLDING THE CUP: παις{1}. B: STARTING IN
FRONT OF THE YOUTH'S MOUTH AND CURVING UP OVER HIS HEAD: μαμεκαποτεο, RETR.{2}.
TO LEFT OF THE LYRE: Λεαγρος καλος, RETR.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} DO THE THREE WORDS MAKE ONE INSCRIPTION (Λεαγρος | καλος | παις), AND
DOES IT THEN REFER TO THE FIGURE? BEAZLEY DOES NOT TAKE IT SO. NOTE THAT LEAGROS
KALOS APPEARS ALSO ON THE OTHER SIDE. I RATHER THINK THAT BOTH YOUTHS ARE
CELEBRATING LEAGROS. {2} THIS HAS BEEN COMPARED TO SAPPHO FR. 36 PAGE: καὶ ποθήω
καὶ μάομαι. IF SO, IT IS A FREE CITATION WITH NUMEROUS IRREGULARITIES, WHICH I
STILL THINK SHOULD BE CONSIDERED MISWRITING.
CAVI Comments: PERPILLOU EXPLAINS THE MISSPELLINGS IN THE QUOTATION AS BASED ON SPECIAL
RULES, FOLLOWING IN PART S. THEODORSSON, THE PHONEMIC SYSTEM OF THE ATTIC
DIALECT 400-340 B.C. (1974).
