Commentary

Images in Negroni Catacchio 1974: tav. V.21 bis (drawing), Tibiletti Bruno 1974: 269, fig. 4 (photo and drawing), Solinas 1995: 341 (drawing), Morandi 1999: 176 (drawing = Morandi 2004: 647, fig. 23.196), tav. XIII.2 (photo = Morandi 2004: tav. XXVI.196).

Inscribed on the bottom of the cup, between the bend toward the wall and the foot, not upside-down (length 4 cm); reading atiaki according to Tibiletti Bruno 1974: 268 f. TB also considers and in Tibiletti Bruno 1978: 147 prefers atieki (also Solinas 1995), but the bar in question seems unintentional (see also Tibiletti Bruno 1990b: 113 f.). Morandi 1999: 176, no. 22, confirms atiaki.
