E 1-134. KYLIKES (shapes as vol. ii. fig. 18 ; vol. iii. figs. 1, 3).

E 1. PART OF A KYLIX. Ht. 3 in. The diam. of the vase must have been about 14! in.

Chiusi. Hartwig in Ath. Mittheil. 1894, p. 155, assigns it to Oltos. The fragment includes
about three-quarters of one exterior design, with the base of the handle which was on r. of this,
and of the interior scene about one quarter of the 1. side. Style of Phintias. Purple in-
scriptions. Inner details in hard black lines. The lion's eyes have a large black disc as
eyeball. Around the interior scene, a thin red line. A spiral ornament, probably from a
palmette under the handle, is preserved on the r. of the exterior scene.

Interior : A warrior in a helmet, which is tilted back, stooping forward to 1.,
blowing a trumpet which he holds nearly at the end in his r. hand : in his 1. he
probably held the spear of which the fore part is seen : this, the trumpet, r.
forearm, part of forehead, and front of helmet alone are preserved. Of the
signature only POIEJ ve&al 6(?) e\iroi7]a\ev is preserved.

[For this motive see Hartwig, Mcistersch. p. 276, note.]
