  • CAVI Collection: Basel, Antikenmuseum BS 488.
  • CAVI Lemma: RF cup. Delos Painter. Last quarter sixth. Ca. 520 (Berger).
  • CAVI Subject: Int.: satyr running with a drinking horn. A: Heracles taming the Cretan bull. B: hoplite defeating a bearded (moustachioed!) Scythian archer.
  • CAVI Inscriptions: A: Gr.: above Heracles' head and above bull, irregularly spaced: hερ^ακλ^ε^ς{1}. B: Gr.: around the archer: Σεραγυε{2}.
  • CAVI Footnotes: {1} Heracles' head and the bull's horn intervene. {2} or, more likely, Σεραγυε[ς].
  • CAVI Comments: Ex Swiss Private. - The inscriptions are written with a very fine point, cf. Philadelphia 5399, by Psiax, CAVI 6808. CVA insists that the archer is bearded and Schauenburg shows that he is Scythian, not Persian; he reads Serague feminine as a slur. But final sigma is often omitted, see Threatte (1980), 640 and ii. 778. The same name (without final sigma) occurs for a male archer on London E 253, ARV[2] 35/2, which is Euergidean [[CAVI 4537]].
