Courby (1922), Vases Grecs a Reliefs, p. 440 ff. describes the same scene as represented on two bowls, BM G96 and a similar vase in Eleusis, and calls it "scenes from rural life", believing that the figure in the car cannot by Dionysos, that the small statue is Priapus, and the attendant figures are bucolic, not satyrs and maenads. He also calls the vases cylindrical pyxides, and unites eight exmples to form a class related to no other class of Hellenistic relief ware save perhaps the "Homeric" bowls. He sets the date to a period later than 280 B.C., or the invasion of Delphi by the Gauls (two fragments of the same ware were found with relief bowls, apparently Hellenistic, in tombs at Delphi). |
