  • CAVI Collection: Paris, Louvre G 18.+
  • CAVI Lemma: RF cup. Oltos. Last quarter sixth. Ca. 510 (Villard).
  • CAVI Subject: Int.: a woman with crotala, dancing. A: duel of Achilles and Aeneas over the falling Troilos. B: chariot.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: starting to right of the left foot and curving along the margin, facing out: Μεμνον{1}. Starting to left of the face, facing out: καλος (see CVA, pl. 4,6.). A: between Achilles' legs: [κα]λος. To right of Troilos' body: Τροι^λος{2}. Above Aeneas' raised spear: Αινεα[ς], retr. To his upper right: καλος. I.e.: Αινεα[ς] καλος. B: above the chariot: Αυτοβουλος, retr. To left of the horses: καλος, retr. Under the horses' raised forefeet: Κινεα[ς], retr.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} ARV[2] gives [Μ]εμνον. {2} Aeneas' left leg intervenes.
  • CAVI Comments: + New York 1981.27. Much restored. Most of the figure in the Int. is modern; so is the upper part of Achilles (ARV[2]). Beazley gives only the inscriptions on B. He says that Autoboulos may be the charioteer, or go with kalos as a kalos-name. He notes that Kinea is complete; the addition of final sigma is mine. ARV[2] (1963), 328/115 mentions the use of ou for long closed o and gives parallels; see also Threatte (1980), 241/4. Cleaned: see Bothmer (1955), 68. Kineas is a human name; see LGPN ii and Pape. It is not listed by M. Moore as a horse name. B however shows only one human (the charioteer) and the name Autoboulos is written close to him. Could one make this the name of the charioteer and read: καλος Κινεα[ς](?).
