  • CAVI Collection: Boston 10.221.+
  • CAVI Lemma: Frs. of RF psykter. From Orvieto. Euphronios. Last quarter sixth. 520-510 (Beazley). 515-510 (`Euphronios').
  • CAVI Subject: Death of Pentheus.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Γαλενε, retr.{1}. To right of Pentheus' back of head, diagonally upward: Πενθευς. A fr. in Freiburg which may belong has: ...λ..ργ..{2}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} the letters αλε, retr., are visible in pl. 6 diagonally downward, along the back of the maenad to right who grabs Pentheus' right arm. {2} a dr. by Beazley shows: `doubtful if belongs': frr. in Freiburg: [--]λ .ργ.[--]. I do not see where in the Berlin Antikenmuseum (1991), 175 this fr. would go. Firm and largish letters. Is [Φι]λ[ε]ργ[ος] possible?
  • CAVI Comments: One fr. from Freiburg is now in Boston, another may belong. Beazley says the earliest representation of Pentheus. Drougou n. 105 gives parallels to the name Galene.
