  • CAVI Collection: Würzburg 193.
  • CAVI Lemma: BF amphora. From Vulci. Unattributed. Ca. 500 (Langlotz).
  • CAVI Subject: A: Europa on the bull. B: similar{1}.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: A: on Europa's left: ταυρος, retr. Around her arm: Ευροπεια{2}. Below the bull: φορβας{3}. B: to left of Europa's face, not retr.: Ε[υ]ροπ[ει]α{4}. Starting to right of Europa and curving around the neck of the bull to below the belly, facing out: [τα]ῦ̣ρος ἀνιαδες{5}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} not well preserved and partly restored. {2} see Pape. {3} Langlotz reads ταῦρος φορβάς, as does CIG. The letters ρ, β, α are partly written over breaks, hence retouched. {4} I follow Langlotz' reading which agrees with the photo; the alpha is upside down, unless it goes with the next inscription. {5} so Langlotz, but see the last note for the pertinence of the alpha. CIG reads ταῦρος ἀνιάδης, but Jacobsthal, with greater probability, suggests amending to ἀναιδής [for the meaning, cf. LSJ, suppl.(2), s.v. ἀναιδής II].
  • CAVI Comments: The inscriptions on both A and B seem retouched.
