CAVI Collection: London D 4.
CAVI Lemma: RF/WG cup. From Nola. Tarquinia Painter. Second quarter fifth. 470-460.
CAVI Subject: Int. (WG): the making of Pandora (Anesidora). Ext.: RF: A: youth with a horse, and other figures. B: a similar subject.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: above the head: Αθε[ν]αα. Above the head: [Α]νεσιδορα. Behind Hephaestus' back: hεφα[ι]στος.
CAVI Comments: My readings omit restored letters. Simon follows G. Neumann in explaining Anesidora as an ancient etymological explanation of Pandora, `she who sends up, or releases, gifts.' Cf. Oxford 525, q.v. Robert had considered A. a cognomen of Demeter and the earth goddess. Ανησιδωρα is listed by Pape as epithet of Earth or Ceres from Plut., Quaest. Symp. 9.14,4, Hesych. and Paus. 1.31,4. My readings omit restored letters. For crossed theta see AttScr. - The letters are all in the preliminary sketch, then painted over; all in the same size and shape. Addendum: the picture in Boardman seems to show that the letters ιστος are in a restored area, so that only hεφα is preserved; but the missing letters of the other names are not restored in the picture. Should I read: hεφα[ιστος](?). Tailed rho. Sigma three- and four-stroke.
