CAVI Lemma: RF cup. From Vulci. Telephos Painter. Hieron, potter. Second quarter fifth. 470-460 (Cohen).
CAVI Subject: Int.: Eos and Tithonos. A-B: unexplained: search party for Tithonos(?): 9 men, one warrior, altar{1}.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: above heads: (κ)αλος. On the BG outside of the right arm of handle B/A from root to tip, facing out, Gr.: hιερον εποιεσεν.
CAVI Footnotes: {1} CB 58f. gives the different explanations of the Ext., thinks it is a search party, but does not say specifically that it is for Tithonos.
CAVI Comments: + Florence 11 B 44 + Villa Giulia (CVA, pl. Y,5-7). Done for Boston only. - The kappa was repainted when I saw the vase. - This vase is later than Makron (Robertson). The writing delegated to the Telephos Painter (Cohen); cf. Boston 98.931. CB gives a history of the collections. CB dr. has an excellent picture of the signature. The signature has tailed rho and four-stroke sigma, whereas the kalos has the three-stroke; letters are disjointed.
