CAVI Lemma: RF cup. From Cerveteri. Foundry Painter. First quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: Int.: at left, youth with two spears seated on a rock. At right, a bearded man with two spears and a sword facing him. Ext.: Achilles pursuing Hector around the walls of Troy. A: Hector pursued by Achilles; BF archers at the gate. B: Hecabe, Priam and Athena behind a tree in ambush for Hector.
CAVI Inscriptions: Int.: above the youth's head: Φανας. Above the man's head: Εμπεδιον{1}. A: to right of Hector's head: [hεκ]τορ. To left of Achilles' face: Αχιλλευ[ς]. In the spaces between the two battlements above the shields: Ι̣λι̣ο̣ν. B: above and to right of Hecuba's head: [hεκα]βε. To right of Priam's body: Πριαμ[ος]. By Athena's head: [Α]θενα[ια].
CAVI Footnotes: {1} CB: both names are known: Phanas: Paus. 4.17,9 (Olympic victor killed in Messenian War of the seventh(?) century); Empedion: PA 4690-93 (from 5 B.C. on), Pape, s.v., mentions also a Selinuntian (see Diod. Sic. 13,59, time of Hannibal) and another person, Rangabé 2268,31. Kretschmer accentuates Φανᾶς; LGPN ii lists as Φαν[ε]ας(?). See also ibid. under Εμπεδιων. CB says the scene is similar to one of Telephus and Teuthras on the Int. of the cup Boston 98.831, but here is probably a genre scene (see Pollak).
CAVI Comments: The Ext. is fragmentary. Tailed rho.
