- CAVI Collection: Tarquinia, Museo Nazionale RC 6848.
- CAVI Lemma: RF cup. From Tarquinia. Oltos. Euxitheos, potter. Last quarter sixth.
510-500. 500-480 (Ferrari).
- CAVI Subject: Int.: a warrior. A: deities in Olympus. B: Dionysus mounting a chariot, with
satyrs and maenads.
- CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: along the margin: Ευχσιθεος εποιεσεν, retr. A: to left of Hebe's head
(she looks left): hεβε, retr. To right of Hermes' head: hερμες. Similar: Αθεναα.
To right of Zeus' head: Ζευς. To Ganymedes' left: Γανυμεδες, retr. Similar:
hε^στια, retr.{1}. Under her chair, an irregular two-liner, vertically up: Ολτος
| εγραφσ̣εν{2}. In the same position as for Hestia: Αφροδιτε, retr. To left of
Ares' head (he looks right): Αρες, retr. B: between a thyrsus and the back of a
leading maenad's head: (θ)εος{3}. Behind the head of a satyr playing the lyre:
Τερπες, retr. To left of Dionysus' face: Διονυσος, retr. To left of a maenad,
facing her: Καλ[λ]ις, retr. To left of a fluting satyr's upper body: Τερπον,
retr. Behind him: καλος, retr. Under the foot, Etruscan Gr.: itum turnce venel
apelinas tinas cliniiaras. See CII suppl. 3.356 and St. etr. 5, pl. 15,1.
- CAVI Footnotes: {1} an arm intervenes. {2} the nu is displaced for lack of space. {3} so CVA
and others (including K.-D.), but Fränkel (after Hartwig? See Roscher) reads
Θερο, which is much more plausible. The theta lacks the dot (= O).
- CAVI Comments: Shapiro thinks that the divinities on A are expecting Heracles; Dionysus on B
is setting out to join them. Differences in Ferrari's readings: Int.:
epo[i]esen. B: Terpos or Terpes, retr. [she says the fifth letter resembles G,
which is probably an omicron]. Thero kal[e] (maenad). Kali[s] (maenad). Terpos
(retr.) kalos (satyr).
