Rather, in illustrations of the Birth of Erechthonios he holds a phiale and tongs or sometimes just a staff or scepter (for the possibilities, see LIMC IV, 1988, pp. 928--931, s.v. ... Brommer's cautious suggestion that the figure on b is Gaia is untenable because in the 5th century, Gaia emerges from the earth and the figure on fragment b is too high in the composition (for the iconography of Gaia see LIMC IV, 1988, pp. 171--177, s.v. |
