Maps and Illustrations Maps Greece West xviii Greece East xix Greater Greece xx Persian Wars xxi Italy xxii Syracuse Sketch Map xxiii Roman Empire xxiii Piraeus xxiv Illustrations 1 Early representation of a capsized war vessel (beak and eye). The fish represent the sea, but also the fate of the drowned sailors (as the fragment shown in Illustration 2 demonstrates). 2 2 A fish devouring a corpse. This painting, and others on other vases, clearly depicts the corpse’s phallus, which may be simply anatomical, but also may depict a common physical reaction to violent death. 2 3 Phase One. The ship of the sea peoples is under attack by Egyptian archers. The crew members, whose armament consists of swords and spears, have little chance to respond. The enemy soldiers are distinguished by their “feathered” helmets and the enemy ship by the bird- (duck-) headed prows. 13
