Much of the drawing has flaked. Max. dim. 0.077.; ; Amazon (head with elaborate headdress, right arm, most of torso) standing frontally, facing to left. It is difficult to understand how this figure is dressed. There is a long-sleeved garment, then something that has a zigzag pattern, probably leggings covering her right leg, raised and bent sharply, perhaps resting on a rock. The curved line at the break next to the pattern might be the lower edge of the skirt of a short chiton. At the upper left, traces of another figure(?). Matte reddish brown for contours. Dilute yellow glaze for headdress and zigzag pattern.; ; Owing to the poor state of preservation of the figure of 982, it is difficult to find parallels. The best that I have been able to find are these: New York, M.M.A. 23.160.64, an unattributed volute-krater fragment that shows a right calf with legging and foot similar to 982 (D. von Bothmer, Amazons in Greek Art, Oxford 1957, pl. 82:6) and Louvre AM 94, an unattributed white ground lekythos depicting an Amazon to right, her left leg raised and bent, the foot resting on a stone (Bothmer, pl. 84:2), a reversal of the position on 982, the main difference being that the torso of the Amazon on 982 is frontal, that on Louvre AM 94 is in profile.","","","Agora:Object:Agora XXX:982","" "","Agora 14, s. 116, p. 91","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-14-116::/Agora/Publications/Agora/Agora 014/Agora 014 116 (91).png::1454::2048","","","","Agora","PublicationPage","","Agora 14","Pausanias, I, 15","","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-14-116","" "","Agora 23, s. 14, p. xiv","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-23-14::/Agora/Publications/Agora/Agora 023/Agora 023 014 (xiv).png::1495::2048","","","","Agora","PublicationPage","","Agora 23","Archäologischer Anzeiger","","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-23-14","" "","Agora XXX, no. 257","","Ca. 480 B.C.","","Red Figured And White Ground | Calyx-Kraters | Single Register","Agora","Object","","Wall fragment. Glaze mottled on outside. Max. dim. 0.063. A. Ashmead, Hesperia 35, 1966, pl. 10:o (mispoised); A. Bélis, BCH 110, 1986, p. 213, fig. 12 (mispoised).; ; Trumpeter (most of face, a little of right shoulder, start of instrument pointed downward slightly), to left. He wears a low-crested helmet with the cheekpieces presumably turned up, and he carries a round shield. Preliminary sketch. Incision for rim of shield (compass-drawn). Relief contour.; ; Whether to call the trumpeter a Greek warrior or an Amazon is difficult. In Amazons in Greek Art, Oxford 1957, p. 156, Bothmer opted for an Amazon, presumably because of the beardlessness and the absence of cheekpieces on the helmet (they could be turned up). He made the further point that the almost horizontal position of the instrument indicates that it is being blown, not merely tested as it would be if it pointed sharply downward. Ashmead (Hesperia 35, 1966, p. 28 and note 58) rejects the identification as an Amazon because the figure has no earring and no long lock of hair. But these are not sure criteria because there is an Amazon trumpeter on Oxford 1927.4065 by Oltos who has short hair and no earring (ARV2 62, 77; Paralip. 327, 77; Addenda 165). Also, the Amazon trumpeter on Louvre G 166/Malibu, the J. Paul Getty Museum 77.AE 11 by the Kleophrades Painter (ARV2 186, 51; Addenda 188) has short hair, at least to judge by what protrudes from the edge of her leather cap. Thus, while the figure on 257 may indeed be an Amazon, it is perhaps best to leave the identification open.; ; Ashmead (Hesperia 35, 1966, p. 26) wants 257 to be part of 256, Corbett (p. 25, note 25a) to keep it separate. It is preferable to keep the two apart: the thickness of 257 is greater, and the glaze in the background is mottled. Also, given what remains of the subjects on each side of 256, it is difficult to see how a trumpeter fits in.; ; For trumpets and playing them, see most recently, D. Paquette, L'instrument de musique dans la céramique de la grèce antique, Paris 1984, pp. 74--83.; ; The Kleophrades Painter (ARV1 124, 39; ARV2 186, 46; Paralip. 340, 46; Addenda 187).","","","Agora:Object:Agora XXX:257","" "","Agora 30, s. 209, p. 190","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-30-209::/Agora/Publications/Agora/Agora 030/Agora 030 209 (190).png::1438::2048","440-430 B.C.; 440 B.C.","","","Agora","PublicationPage","","Agora 30","ARV² 1054, 51","","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-30-209","" "","Agora 30, s. 196, p. 177","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-30-196::/Agora/Publications/Agora/Agora 030/Agora 030 196 (177).png::1438::2048","480 B.C.","","","Agora","PublicationPage","","Agora 30","ARV² 189, 76","","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-30-196","" "","Agora 11, s. 17, p. xvii","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-11-17::/Agora/Publications/Agora/Agora 011/Agora 011 017 (xvii).png::1461::2048","","","","Agora","PublicationPage","","Agora 11","Handbuch der Archäologie, im Rahmen des Handbuchs der Altertumswissenschaft, III, 1, Die Plastik, by Georg Lippold, Munich, 1950","","Agora:PublicationPage:Agora-11-17",""
