Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : A Hellenistic mouldmade relief bowl from the second half of the 2th century BC found in Porsuk (Southern Cappadocia) represents Odysseus offering a cup of wine to Polyphemos, surrounded by satyrs. It illustrates an episode of the only complete surviving satyric drama, The Cyclops of Euripides. Manufactured in the workshops of Antioch-on-the-Orontes, this literary bowl is exceptional on more than one count, since it reveals contacts between Northern Syria and the Anatolian plateau.
