  • AVI Record Number: 834
  • CAVI Collection: Athens, N.M. 2035.1,2.
  • CAVI Lemma: Frs. of BF krater{1}. From Menidi. Sophilos. First quarter sixth. 600-575.
  • CAVI Subject: 2035.1: Unexplained subject: chariot preceded by snake and woman; below, animals. 2035.2: Centauromachy with Heracles; below, animals.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: 2035.1: under the spout: [Σοφ]ιλος :* μεπ̣ο̣ε̣σεν, retr. Traces of other inscriptions, see Bakir 68 and pl. 8. 2035.2: Κε[ν]τα̣[υρος].
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} probably from the same krater, cf. Para. 18/21.
  • CAVI Comments: = 15,918 and 15,942. Threatte (1980), 56 notes that [2035.1] may have a boustrophedon inscription, for otherwise "it is very difficult to explain the interpunct to the left of the theta in the uppermost line, cf. the photograph in [JdI 13, pl. 1,3]"; cf. also p. 328: Beazley's μεπ̣ο̣ε̣σεν (a very early omission of iota in εποιεσεν) is somewhat doubtful; it had been read με[γρ]αφσεν, cf. CVA, Greece 1, pl. 1.1.
