  • Aphrodite on a Ladder
    APHRODITE ON A LADDER (PLATES 17-19) N JULY OF 1981, in Byzantinelevels above and west of what was soonto be identified as the Stoa Poikile, the excavatorsof the Athenian Agora found two joining fragmentsof a Classical votive relief (P1. 17:a).1 The relief is framed by simple moldings: taenia and ovolo at top and a plain band at the right side. In the pictorial field is preservedthe head of a young woman carved in low relief. She gazes down to the left at a vessel raised in her right hand. Her head is coveredby a short veil. Above and behind the veil are two rungs and the vertical supports of a ladder whose upper end disappearsbehind the frame. Although frag- mentary and weathered, the relief provides a precious document for the study of Classical relief sculpture, and its unusual iconographygives a valuable clue to the identity of one of the deities worshiped in the area. Most of the figure'sprofile is broken away, but the carefully carvedlines of the lips and eye show that the sculptor took pains to give her delicate features. Her hair, where it ap- pears below the veil, is mostly worn away. Along the side of her face appear waves of hair with a scallopedcontour. No trace of her ear is preserved.It was either very small or hidden beneath her hair. Folds of the veil cross her head in bifurcating linear patterns of rounded ridges. Below her hair two folds fall down along her neck, while others, from the hidden right side of her head, blow out behind in sweeping curves.

It is the fate of those who toil at the lower employments of life, to be rather driven by the fear of evil, than attracted by the prospect of good; to be exposed to censure, without hope of praise; to be disgraced by miscarriage or punished for neglect, where success would have been without applause and diligence without reward.

  • Designing Women: Aristophanes' Lysistrata
    Aristophanes’ Lysistrata 37 DESIGNING WOMEN: ARISTOPHANES’ LYSISTRATA AND THE “HETAIRIZATION” OF THE GREEK WIFE* SARAH CULPEPPER STROUP INTRODUCTION Aristophanes’ Lysistrata is a comedy of political and sexual negotiation and of what happens when complementary but distinct spheres of social interaction—the polis and the oikos, the public and the private—are torn apart and turned inside-out by protracted and seemingly ineluctable warfare. Produced, most probably, at the Lenaia of 411,1 this unusually topical drama offers an alluring reversal of the more standard comic representation of female sexuality as implicitly destructive to the civic body, forging in its place a fantasy world in which strictly proscribed sexual negotiation might * Various drafts of this article have benefited greatly from the criticisms and advice of numerous readers. I am indebted to, among others, Ruby Blondell, Mary LeBlanc, and two especially helpful anonymous readers for Arethusa. Thanks are due also to Jeffrey Henderson and Christopher Faraone, who forwarded to me manuscript versions of their own work on the topic, and to Andrew Stewart and Christopher Hallet, for their generous help with my use of the visual material. Any errors that remain are my own and should not be credited to my kind and conscientious readers. 1 A secure dating for this drama is difficult. As Henderson 1987.xv–xviii argues, however, the internal evidence of the play—the attitudes, assumptions, and arguments of the characters—in addition to the evidence given in the eighth book of Thukydides (though admittedly problematic in chronology at some places) will support a date of 411. For fuller discussions of dating, see Sommerstein 1977 and Westlake 1980.

  • Women in Aristophanes' Lysistrata
    Courtesans Reconsidered: Women in Aristophanes’ Lysistrata LAURA MCCLURE University of Wisconsin [email protected] Scholarship on Aristophanes’ Lysistrata over the last three decades has almost without exception supported the view that the play models its portrayal of the sex-striking wives on hetaeras. Henderson first proposed that the teasing delay tactics of Myrrhine in the seduction scene resemble those of a courtesan1. He subsequently hypothesizes that the play, with its emphasis on female bibulousness, sexual appetites, adornment and depilation, may have been based on the hetaera comedy of Pherecrates2. 1 — Henderson 1987: 177 concludes that her «skillful wheedling, teasing, and coquettishness were surely more characteristic of hetairai than of wives» and further views Cinesias as «a customer bargaining with a bawd for a girl’s services». He believes the original audience would have identified the scene as such due to their familiarity with courtesans. However, Dover 1972: 160 observes that the play conspicuously avoids any mention of non-marital sex, while Stroup 2003: 42 remarks, “it is worth noting that neither the word hetaira, nor indeed the word for any other ‘formally recognized’ sex worker (pornê, aulêtris) appears in this comedy”. I gratefully acknowledge the thoughtful comments of the two anonymous readers which lead to a much improved version of the paper. The Greek text throughout is taken from Henderson’s 1987 edition of the play. 2 — In attempting to explain the origins of the female comic characters in this play, Henderson hypothesizes the hetaera comedy as a prototype and further expands on his view of the young wives as hetaeras, stating «certainly his characterization of the young wives is much closer to the comic EuGeStA - n°5 - 2015 COURTESANS RECONSIDERED 55 Stroup further describes the women as «pseudo-hetaerai» based on the play’s «vivid sympotic imagery and sexual innuendo» (Stroup 2004: 41).

  • New Evidence of Zoroastrian Iconography of the Late Parthian Period
    Iranica Antiqua, vol. LI, 2016 doi: 10.2143/IA.51.0.3117834 NEW EVIDENCE OF ZOROASTRIAN ICONOGRAPHY OF THE LATE PARTHIAN PERIOD BY Barbara KAIM (University of Warsaw, Institute of Archaeology) Abstract: Among several small objects found within the ruins of the fire temple excavated by the Turkmen-Polish team at Mele Hairam were four small bone plaques of the late Parthian period. Although badly preserved, these plaques are important both as evidence of ancient Zoroastrian iconography and as unique scenes depicting ritual acts that were performed inside the fire temple. Keywords: Zoroastrian iconography, Late Parthian, fire temple, Mele Hairam Conducted by the Turkmen-Polish team between 1997 and 2009, exca- vation at Mele Hairam, the site located in the Serakhs oasis of southern Turkmenistan (fig. 1), revealed the remnants of a Zoroastrian fire temple dating back to the first - fourth centuries AD. Several cultic installations uncovered inside the temple building provide valuable information for the reconstruction of ancient fire worship patterns. The same contributory role can be ascribed to images engraved on four small bone plaques of the late Parthian period, that were found within the fallen brick debris of the south- ern temple sector. The place where the plaques were found and how poorly they are preserved both suggest that the object they once adorned, now unreconstructable, had been destroyed already in ancient times, rendering the plaques useless. As such, they had been thrown away from the temple enclosure. Although badly damaged and incomplete, these finds are note- worthy as they belong to a very scanty collection of ancient Zoroastrian iconographic evidence.

  • Athenaeus, Clearchus and the Dress of the Persian Apple Bearers
    Iranica Antiqua, vol. LI, 2016 doi: 10.2143/IA.51.0.3117832 ATHENAEUS, CLEARCHUS AND THE DRESS OF THE PERSIAN APPLE BEARERS BY Michael B. CHARLES and Eva ANAGNOSTOU-LAOUTIDES (Southern Cross University and Monash University) Abstract: This article examines Clearchus of Soli’s reference to the effeminate dress and equipment of the Persian μηλοφόροι or Apple Bearers, the infantry guard of the Great King, as preserved by Athenaeus in his Deipnosophistae. We argue that Athenaeus’ description of the μηλοφόροι being deliberately dressed in Median fashion so as to taunt the Medes is likely to be a misinter- pretation of Clearchus’ original text. In agreement with recent evaluations of Athenaeus, we therefore suggest that his rendition of Clearchus’ original text cannot be accepted at face value, and that the μηλοφόροι were dressed and equipped in a luxurious fashion so as to conform with the standard Near Eastern visual language of majesty and power. Keywords: Medes, Persians, Apple Bearers, Athenaeus, Clearchus of Soli Among the many curious details surrounding the Achaememid military is the assertion, found in a fragment of Clearchus of Soli (49 Wehrli = FHG II 304), transmitted by Athenaeus (12.514d) in his wide-ranging Deipnosophistae (late second or early third century A.D.), that the μηλοφόροι or Apple Bearers lived in a luxurious manner in a deliberate attempt to recall the τρυφή or softness, often understood in connection with effeminate luxury, of the now-subjugated Medes and their court1. Now, it is well recognized that these soldiers were the most elite of the 1 The words τρυφάω/τρυφή and their derivatives are often used in classical sources in connection with effeminate luxury and soft living, perceived as characteristic of the peoples of the East, including Ionian Greeks; see, e.g., Eur.
