CAVI Lemma: BF neck amphora. Diosphos Painter. First quarter fifth.
CAVI Subject: A: Cadmus and Harmonia in a chariot drawn by a lion and a boar; behind the animals is Apollo citharoedus. B: Athena, Heracles, and Hermes. [Heracles going to Olympus?]
CAVI Inscriptions: A: above the pair's heads, curving around Harmonia's forehead: hαρμονια. In front of their faces: Κασσμος, for Καδμος. To right of Apollo's lyre: Απολ[λ]ον̣.
CAVI Comments: = Louvre F 384 bis, according to Haspels. Haspels has good readings. The story of yoking a lion and a boar to the chariot belongs properly to the story of Admetus; see Schauenburg and Shapiro. The same scene is found on a BF oinochoe in Göttingen, inv. 23,5. Para. 185/23(7) (not inscribed).
