  • Akropolis Museum 581 a Family at the Apaturia?
    AKROPOLIS MUSEUM 581 A FAMILYAT THE APATURIA? (PLATES 1 14-116) A KROPOLIS MUSEUM 581 (P1. 114), showing an Athenian family of five offering a pig sacrificeto Athena, ranksamong the best-knownvotive reliefs of the late Archaic period.1 It is of Parian marble.2 Although it is always cited for its exquisite style, scholars hardlyever look at its content.3 Discussionshave usuallybeen confined to the possibilitythat it is one of the earliest archaisticsculptures of the Severe Style, and its dating has ranged from 510 to 480.4 The question of archaism, first raised by Dickins in 1912,5 was only recently laid to rest.6 Let us cast a fresh glance at the unique iconographyof the relief. Is it possible to guess the occasion for the dedication? Can it be associatedwith a public festival? That a family is involvedmay point to a privateevent; on the other hand, appearancesmay be misleading. The relief was excavated on the Athenian Akropolisby the Archaeological Society in 1883, between the Parthenon and the Museum, along with other fragments of sculptures destroyed during the Persian sack of the Akropolisin 480.7 The fragmentswere used as foundation material for the terracing of the rock east of the Parthenon. Its inclusion in material from the Persian sack excludes the possibilityof a date after 480, as has sometimes been suggested.8 In 1886, Stais publishedan engraving of the relief, which is now the sole 1 Payne 1936, pp. 48-49, p1. 126:1;W-H.

No. _Zv_^ _ii ALL RIGHTS RESERVED INTRODUCTION Our grandfathers regarded the study of mythology as a necessary adjunct to a polite education, without a knowledge of which neither the classical nor the more modem poets could be read with understanding. But it is now recognised that upon mythology and folklore rests the basis of the new science of Comparative Religion. The evolution of religion from mythology has now been made plain. It is a law of evolution that, though the parent types which precede certain forms are doomed to perish, they yet bequeath to their descendants certain of their characteristics ; and although mythology has perished (in the civilised world, at least), it has left an indelible stamp not only upon modem religions, but also upon local and national custom. The work of Fruger, Lang, Immerwahr, and others has revolutionised mythology, and has evolved from the unexplained mass of tales of forty years ago a definite and systematic science.

This thesis establishes, through the analysis of religious themes, that the religious nature of festivals, the prevalence of religious worship, and the impact of politics in influenced Aristophanes‟ and Plautus‟ works. The focus and structure of this work is categorized into the themes of devotion, divination, diviners, the divine, divine communication, ritual, and offerings. The purpose of a thematic approach facilitates cross-cultural comparisons of religiously through similar beliefs and practices found in Greek and Roman culture. Despite the influence of Greek theater in Rome, Plautus‟ adaptations clearly reflect uniquely Roman perspectives under allusions of Greek settings. Aristophanes and Plautus portrayed elements of religion in their works, and despite the specific cultural influences of the playwrights both depicted them favorable to traditional beliefs and practices.

The historian says that this change was very hard for them to accept, that "they were dejected and aggrieved at having to leave their homes and the temples which had always been theirs - relies, inherited from their fathers, of their original form of government- and at the prospect of changing their mode of life, and facing what was nothing less for each of them than forsaking his own town" (2.16.2). He attributes these feelings of the Athenians to the fact that originally Attica had been divided into a number of independent cities that had had little in common until Theseus unified the country by creating a common capital and a common govemment and by dissolving the local councils and magistrates. Aristotle, who certainly had the unification of Attica in mind, also considers, at the beginning of his Politics (1252b15ff.), the village (kome) as the oldest form of community and the polis as the result of the unification of severa! villages.

  • Gifts Given to Delian Apollo During the Greek Archaic Period
    Spectacular Gifts: Gifts Given to Delian Apollo During the Greek Archaic Period Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Bonnie McCutcheon Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Greg Anderson, Advisor Nathan Rosenstein Timothy E. Gregory 1 Copyrighted by Bonnie McCutcheon 2018 2 Abstract Delos, birthplace to the gods Apollo and Artemis, was home to a significant sanctuary to Apollo in the Greek Archaic Period. Apollo and his sanctuary received many spectacular gifts which stand out in the historical record, including world-premiere works of art, such as the Nikandre kore. The turannos of Samos, Polycrates, notably gave to Apollo the neighboring island of Rheneia, which he attached to Delos with a chain. These and other gifts include elements of the spectacular which make them stand out. To understand the role played by elements of spectacle in gifts at Delos, we must examine these gifts as a discourse. Only by putting them in context with one another can we fully understand the messages that each gift was meant to communicate. Ultimately, I will argue that this is a discourse about establishing and performing identity as xenoi (guest- friends) of the gods and as megaloprepes (magnificent or great men). iii Dedication For Russ, who always believed in me, even when I did not. iv Acknowledgments The composition of this dissertation has spanned over a decade of my life, and could not have been completed without the support of my family and mentors at the Ohio State University.

The description of the women here is very slight, being given by the epithet avriaveipa^i of the line: to rpiTOv av Kare7r€<f)vev 'A/ia^oW? avTtaveipa^ ^^ but, from the facts that battle with them is considered a severe test of the hero's valour and that as warriors they are ranked with the monstrous chimaera, the fierce Solymi, and picked men of Lycia, we gather that they are conceived as beings to be feared.

  • Introduction 1
    Notes Introduction 1. Trans. Mackail (1934, 275). 2. The literature that has come the closest proposes the existence of the hieros gamos, or rite of sacred marriage, in ancient West Asia and the ancient Mediterranean world. According to some scholars, the sacred marriage was a ritual act of sexual intercourse between a king and priestess as a means of guaranteeing abundance and fertility for the people. This idea has itself received its share of critique. See, for example, Nissinen and Uro (2008). The present work in part reframes the sacred marriage concept by considering women’s agency in it, a much-neglected theme. 3. For a summary of current scientifi c thinking on parthenogenesis, see Chapter 8. 4. For feminist analyses of pre-Greek goddesses, see, for example, Spretnak (1978), Dexter (1990), Baring and Cashford (1991), and Downing (1992). 5. For further discussion of hieros gamos, see Chapter 1. 6. It is based closely on my doctoral dissertation, Bearing the Holy Ones: A Study of the Cult of Divine Birth in Ancient Greece (Rigoglioso 2007). 7. For mention of the parthenogenetic aspects of various goddesses, see, for example, Davis (1971, 33); Spretnak (1978, 20); Daly ([1978] 1990, 84); Dexter (1990, 172–3); Sjöö and Mor (1991, 27–30); Reis (1991; 34–53); Ruether (1992; 18); and, more extensively, Hwang (2005, passim). For claims of successful virgin births among indigenous tribes in Australia and Melanesia, see, for example, Roth (1903); Malinowski (1913, 1927, 1929); Montagu ([1937] 1974); Leach (1969); and Spiro (1968). For other, more controversial, claims, see Bernard (n.d.) and Melchizedek (2000, 2:282–5).

  • The Origin of the Panathenaea
    Geschichte des griechischen Weltmodells vor AristoteIes 231 Vom frühhistorischen Weltbild aus fragt man nicht nach der wahren Größe der Gestirne, nach dem Fallen der Erde, nach einer Vielzahl von Welten. Alle diese Fragen, sowie die Theorie des Wirbels, werden erst mit der Himmelskugel sinnvoll. Anaxime­ nes und Xenophanes haben noch das alte Weltbild; erst Anaxago­ ras durchdenkt konsequent die Hypothese der Himmelskugel (§§ 4-9). Mit der Himmelskugel drängt sich allmählich der Ge­ danke auf, daß es kein absolutes Oben und Unten gibt, logische Entwicklung über Plato zum Philolaos-System und zu Aristoteles (§ 10). Während sich der schrittweise erfolgende Fortschritt vom alten Weltbild über Anaxagoras zum aristotelischen Modell im­ mer deutlicher und durch Originalstellen belegt abzeichnet, wer­ den die nur von der Doxographie überlieferten frühen Vorweg­ nahmen von Himmels- und Erdkugel immer fragwürdiger. Nach den Ergebnissen dieses Aufsatzes bleibt allein Anaximander davon übrig. Diese Lage zwingt zu einer radikalen Kritik an der Anaxi­ mander-Doxographie: Die Himmelskugel ist in Anaximander hineingelesen worden (§§ 11-2). Zwei Exkurse: Anaxagoras ist zeitlich vor Parmenides anzu­ SCL"en; Rechtfertigung der Deutung und Datierung des Philolaos­ Systt. 'S iq dieser Arbeit (§§ 13-4).

    original scientific paper UDK:663.2:398.8(497) A HOLY BEVERAGE: ON THE HISTORY OF WINE Lidija Stojanović Institute of Folklor “Marko Cepenkov”, Ss Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, Macedonia Key words: wine, traditional folk culture, origin of wine, etiological legends Abstract: In this paper we shall consider several aspects in which we can investigate the occurrence, the presence, and the significance of wine in the Balkans. We will use data from ethnolinguistics and folk literature, especially the presence of giving a toast and the cult of drinking wine in epic poetry, as well the etiological legends that analyze the origins of wine. In addition to this, some accompanying ritual and cult actions will be analyzed that may explain the significance and meaning of wine in some parts of traditional folk culture. Клучни зборови: вино, традиционалната култура, потеклото на виното, етиолошкилегенди Резиме: Во овој труд ќе се осврнеме на некои аспекти во испитувањето на појавата и значењето на виното на Балканот. Ќе бидат опфатени податоците одетнолингвистиката и народната книжевност, со особен акцент на здравицата и култот на пиење вино во епската поезија, како и потеклото на истото во етиолошките легенди. Во прилог на ова, ќе бидат анализирани некои придружни ритуали и култови, што уште повеќе го потенцира значењето на виното во традиционалната народна култура. 1. Introduction Wine is an ancient mythological symbol of fertility (abundance) and a mythological sign identified with human blood. The earliest evidence of the mythological triumph of wine and blood were established in ancient Hittite rituals and middle Hittite texts of warriors’ vows, where in the performance of rituals there is pouring of wine and exclamations – “this is not wine, this is your blood!” These formulas appear in Christian mythology (in the words of Jesus Christ, who taking the cup of wine, says: “This is my blood” – Matt.

    ROBERTSON, NOEL, Melanthus, Codrus, Neleus, Caucon: Ritual Myth as Athenian History , Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies, 29:3 (1988:Autumn) p.201 Melanthus, Codrus, N eleus, Caucon: Ritual Myth as Athenian History Noel Robertson I. The Problem Melanthus, Codrus, and Neleus are the leading figures in Athens' second dynasty of kings, the N eleids from Pylos who displace the ancient line of Cecrops and Erechtheus. The Cauconians and their eponymous hero are other refugees from Pylos who come to Athens at the same time. Neleids and Cauconians bring important changes, for they soon go forth from Athens to found the cities of Ionia. In modern accounts of the Ionian migration this tradition, if tradition it is, is sometimes cited with respect. Others are sceptical, and a few have offered reasons. A century ago, apropos of the genos (as it then seemed to be) Medontidae, Toepffer argued strongly that this second dynasty was contrived by Athens in order to authenticate her claim to be the mother city of Ionia-a claim, he further argued, that was false and belated. For it is Pylos, not Athens, which the Ionian poet Homer treats with all the interest and affection due to one's place of origin; and the Ionian poet Mimnermus recalls the exodus from Pylos to Colophon. A short while after, Wilamowitz discounted Codrus and Neleus on rather different grounds, as creatures of Ionian aetiology. Eduard Meyer, like Toepffer, gave more to Athenian invention. As for Caucon, Toepffer found it easy to show that the genos Lycomidae usurped this hero at a late stage; but he did not ask why the Cau­ conians were brought to Athens in the first place.
