Original Commentary

Terracotta neck-amphora (jar)

Obverse, Herakles fighting with Amazons
Reverse, combat with two women watching

In this encounter, Herakles confronts two Amazons armed like hoplites (Greek foot soldiers) with spears, while another Amazon, an archer, flees to the left. She wears the tunic and soft leather cap associated with Eastern dress.
