a youthful winged figure with short wavy hair, short girt chiton, and winged
endromidcs, holding in her r. a caduceus ; her 1. hand, passed across her chest, is
laid on her r. shoulder. On the r. of Pandora Ares moves to 1. in helmet,
cuirass, short chiton, greaves, and mantle over arms, with shield (device, a four-
spoked chariot-wheel, red on black) on 1. and spear in r. ; his helmet has the
cheek-pieces lowered, and a dolphin (silhouette) plunging to r. on the crown. He
looks back to r. at Hermes, who runs to r., looking back and holding out in r.
his caduceus towards Ares ; he is beardless, with hair looped up over ears,
petasos at back, chlamys, short girt chiton, and winged endromides. On r.
Hera stands to r., but looks to 1., holding upright in her r. a sceptre ; she wears
a long sleeved chiton, bordered himation, a modius decorated with two rows of
dots, and earrings.
(/>) Girls dancing. On either side of a wreathed, beardless flute-player in
a long dotted chiton with close-fitting sleeves reaching to the wrists, who plays
his flutes to r., three girls are dancing. The nearest on r. raises her r. hand, and,
resting en face on her 1. toes, draws the r. toes backward along the ground,
looking towards the flute-player. The next on r. dances rapidly to 1., looking
back, with an arm extended on either side ; the third dances towards her with 1.
hand on hip and r. arm extended. The girl on 1. of the flute-player.dances to
r., looking back, with r. hand on hip and 1. arm extended to r. The next one
dances to r., raising both arms ; the last on the 1. dances rapidly to r., raising
both arms, extended on a level with the shoulders with an action as of flying
(cf. E 804). Between these last two a bearded, wreathed man in an himation,
holding a staff in r., stands to 1. All the girls wear varieties of the Doric chiton,
and a dotted saccos (or a broad band wound round, entirely covering the hair);
the first and last described have cross-belts (stethodesma) ; the fourth has a
diploi's with a heavy embattled border above and below.
(c) Satyric chorus. In the centre a wreathed youth in an himation stands
to r., playing on the flutes ; on each side of him two actors dressed as bearded
Satyrs, with goat's feet, snub nose, and horns sprouting back from the centre of
the forehead, dance with uncouth gestures. Each has, fastened around his
middle, a black cloth to which is attached an erect phallos and a goat's tail.
(d) Family of Satyrs at play. On the 1. a bearded, wreathed Satyr,
wearing a himation, leans forward against a staff, holding in his r. a large ball,
which he is about to throw towards four bearded Satyrs on r.; of these two
bend forward to 1., with hands on knees, and on their shoulders the other two
are seated, holding out both hands prepared to catch the ball. Between the
draped Satyr and the players stand on 1. an infant Satyr en face looking to r.,
with bowling-hoop in 1. hand ; and on r. a Maenad, also en face and looking to
r., with long chiton, over which a panther-skin is knotted, long hair wreathed,
and thyrsos held upright in 1. ; she raises her r. hand. On the bottom of the
foot incised characters, see Old Catalogue, pi. C. 1265.
