- CAVI Collection: Rome, Vatican 372.
- CAVI Lemma: BF amphora. From Cerveteri. Leagros Group (Antiope Group I). Last quarter
sixth. 510-500.
- CAVI Subject: A: Heracles and Cerberus. B: Ariadne mounting the chariot of Dionysus.
- CAVI Inscriptions: A: nonsense: to right of Heracles' legs: νχδεο. To left of Hades' face:
νοεh(λ)χδι, retr.{1}. Above Cerberus' head: (ν)δχυ, retr.{2}. To right of Hades'
shoulder: (.)χασ, retr.{3}. Above Persephone: five letters, not legible in
Albizzati's photo.
- CAVI Footnotes: {1} the lambda is not retr.; the delta may be a rho. This last holds true of
all `deltas', whence perhaps Smith got the idea that these painters play with
the name of Nearchos, although he too reads νχδεο. {2} the nu is not retr. {3}
the first letter is a blob.
