  • CAVI Collection: Ferrara, Museo Nazionale di Spina 2897.
  • CAVI Lemma: RF volute krater. From Spina, Valle Trebba, tomb 128. Group of Polygnotos; Curti Painter (Halm-Tisserant). Third quarter fifth.
  • CAVI Subject: In the center of A: Sabazios(?) and Cybele(?), each with a phiale, seated under a canopy{2}. On both sides and around the vase, a priestess and votaries dancing to the flutes.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: A: above and to right of S.'s head: vacat 3 χ(.)ος{3}. To right of C.'s tiara: καοε{4}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} bibl. on inscriptions: Arias (1958), 21ff., Alfieri–Arias (1958), 71ff., pls. 74-81, Alfieri–Arias (1960), 137ff., Aurigemma (1960–5), ii, 48–51, pls. 20-30, S. Patitucci, in Arte ant. mod. 16 (1962) 146-65. {2} so Simon (Arias and Patitucci agree); Beazley in ARV[2] prefers this to his own (Dionysus with Semele or Ariadne). {3} so the dr. (pl. 97); ..χ.ος, text. Aurigemma 1935 restores: Ιακχος. {4} so the photo.in Aurigemma; Aurigemma 1935 has ΚΛΟΕ in dr., and text. For καοε for καλε see AttScr (1990), 175 and no. 1177a. - Arias in CVA reads, before the divinities: καλος and καλε, and this is repeated by Matheson.
