The Attic red-figure volute-krater attributed to Euthymides discovered at Morgantina in 1958 is here fully published for the first time. The black-bodied vase, decorated on the neck only, displays the Amazonomachy of Herakles on the obverse and a symposium on the reverse. The actions of the symposiasts indicate a temporal progression from the initial toasts to the final effects of overindulgence, a composition that is unique in Attic vase painting. Unusual aspects of the Amazons' armor, namely the octopus shield device and the ram's-head cheekpieces of their Chalcidian helmets, demonstrate a sensitivity on the part of the artist to the nuances of this popular battle. The vase's archaeological context indicates that the ritual of the Greek banquet had made its way to central Sicily in the Late Archaic period
