- CAVI Lemma: BF neck amphora. From Gela. Unattributed; Dot-Band Class. First quarter
fifth.
- CAVI Subject: A: Heracles citharoedus mounting a platform; at left, his cloak and quiver
hung up; in front of him, on the platform, his club propped up diagonally. B: an
unclear scene: a bearded satyr, seated on top of a large stepped block, perhaps
an altar, leans against a wineskin and plays the flutes; to left and right of
the block are remains of a different scene, variously interpreted (at left,
human'legs; at right, animal (goat) heads to right); see CVA, p. 11.
- CAVI Inscriptions: Nonsense: A: to left of Heracles' head, at top of scene: 4 letters, mostly
dots(?). Along Heracles' back, probably not facing him and not retr.:
χοεκ^χο{1}. Between Heracles' legs: χοε. To right of the cithara, perhaps
curved: at least 3 letters, probably more. Along the club, also not retr. and
hence upside down: χοτεχο. B: above the satyr's raised leg: (ο̣)ο(.)(.)(π).
Behind the satyr's back: χοε(κ)χσ{2}.
- CAVI Footnotes: {1} so the ph. and text in CVA; part of the quiver intervenes. {2} the kappa
is unclear.
- CAVI Comments: = G 240. Small. Leagran-type nonsense.
