Historical Context: This Lekythos (tall vase) is typical of pottery produced in Attica (reghion of Greece near Athens) and the Mediterranean area about the 5th Century BC. This is the era just before Philip II (Father of Alexander the Great) and Alexander the Great. Attica is a historical region of Greece, containing Athens, Marathon, and Sparta. The historical region is centered on the Attic peninsula, which projects into the Aegean Sea. The history of Attica is tightly linked with that of Athens, which from the Classical period onwards, was one of the most important cities in the ancient world. Classical Athens was a powerful city-state. A centre for the arts, learning and philosophy, home of Plato's Academy and Aristotle's Lyceum, it is widely referred to as the cradle of Western civilization and the birthplace of democracy, largely due to the impact of its cultural and political achievements during the 5th and 4th centuries BC on the rest of the then known European continent.   « Less

Historical Context: This aryballos is typical of pottery produced in Corinthia during the 9th to 7th century BC. This is the geometric era, before the archaic era, about the time of Homer and the founding of Carthage by the Phonecians (814 BC) and the founding of Rome by the Romans (753 BC). An aryballos is a narrow-necked, spherical or globular Greek vase. Commonly used as a scent or oil bottle, particularly by athletes at the baths, the aryballos derives from the globular (oinochoe) of the Geometric style (9th century BC), evolving its distinctive shape in the early Proto-Corinthian style (8th century BC). From the many aryballoi that have been found dating from the late 8th and 7th centuries bc, an evolution can be traced from a round to an ovoid shape, then to a pointed, top-heavy version, and finally to a round shape; the round, Corinthian type.   « Less
