- CAVI Lemma: RF hydria. From Vulci. Copenhagen Painter. First quarter fifth.
- CAVI Subject: Body: Medea rejuvenating Jason: at left, Medea; in the center, a cauldron
over a fire, and a ram; At right. Jason, with outstretched arms.
- CAVI Inscriptions: Body: in front of the faces: Μ̣εδεια, retr. Ιασον. Under the foot, Grr.: AR
[[lig.]] with stemmed rho. λεκυ. υδρι. See Johnston (1979){1}.
- CAVI Footnotes: {1} Hackl differs.
- CAVI Comments: C. Smith: the first mention of Jason's renewal is schol. Arist., Equ. 1321;
without the inscription one would have thought of Medea renewing Aison (his
father); Heydemann thought Ιασον miswritten for Αισον. For parallels to the
shape see ARV[2] 1634, top. Dotted delta. Four-stroke sigma. Note leky and
hydri.
