- CAVI Collection: Paris, Louvre G 153.
- CAVI Lemma: RF cup. From Italy. Makron. First quarter fifth. Hauptwerk I (Kunisch).
- CAVI Subject: Int.: Achilles with the body of Hector. A-B: Sacrifice of Polyxena.
- CAVI Inscriptions: A: Neoptolemus and Polyxena alone have their names inscribed (Beazley). The
drs. show two frs. only (probably from Pottier?): Ext.: to left of head of
warrior to right: [Nεοπτολε]μος. To right and left of woman's head to right:
[Π]ολοχσε^ν[ε], retr.{1}. On handle A/B, in the right hasta, in red: [h]ιερον
[επ]οιεσεν{2}.
- CAVI Footnotes: {1} so my note; for [Π]ολυχσεν[ε]. {2} from the sketch, Kunisch, p. 178, but
there is no indication that an initial heta is lost (complete fore?]. A single
interpoint between the words is shown in ARV[2] and is accepted by Cohen, n.
142, who lists two examples of double interpoints in Hieron signatures. Kunisch
8 n. 38 however thinks the inscription is too poorly preserved to be sure of
this. ARV[2] also states that the signature is in red, with reference to Bull.
Vereen. 29, 12-15.
- CAVI Comments: + Florence no no. (Guy). Type B. For the signatures of Hieron, see the
bibliography under Louvre G 141. For the Dip. signatures see esp. Cohen 70 and
n. 128 and Kunisch 8. Attic alphabet with four-stroke sigma. Another signature
of Hieron in red mentioned in ARV[2] is Florence 3929 (460/15).
