Arco di Odisseo, arco di Eracle: cultura visuale a Cerveteri tra immaginario attico e committenza locale

Abstract

This paper addresses the iconographic programs of the phiale of Douris found in the S. Antonio sanctuary at Cerveteri,
and the phiale of Brygos or Onesimos discovered at Pyrgi. The study aims to demonstrate that the two Greek vases
were dedicated as precious anathemata in the framework of a particular import strategy by the local clients who then
re-interpreted the mythical iconographic paradigms of Heracles and Odysseus.
