The first subject to be mentioned in connection with the story of Theseus is that of his father Aigeus consulting the oracle of Themis.[1227] His finding of Aigeus’ sword and sandals beneath the stone (cf. Plate LXII.) is not depicted on vases, but we have a possible representation of his recognition by Aigeus,[1228] and an unintelligible scene where he pursues or attacks his mother Aithra, apparently wielding the newly found sword.[1229] There are only two R.F. kylikes which give the complete series of adventures, including that in Crete; the Duris kylix in the British Museum (Vol. I., frontisp.) omits two (the bull and Prokrustes), and others give a varying number of scenes, omitting sometimes one, sometimes another. The adventure with Periphetes appears to be confined to literature. We give the list as follows, with the vases on which they may be seen[1230]: (1) The pine-bender Sinis. B.F.: Athens 879. R.F.: Reinach, i. 313 (= Naples R.C. 180) and ii. 280. (2) The sow of Krommyon, sometimes accompanied by a Nymph or old woman, the personification of the locality. Reinach, i. 459; Noel des Vergers, _Étrurie_, pl. 14. (3) The brigand Skiron (in Megara); this scene is usually to be identified by the foot-pan and the tortoise. Reinach, i. 119. (4) The wrestling with Kerkyon (at Eleusis). Reinach, i. 324. (5) Prokrustes and his bed (near Athens). B.F.: Athens 879. R.F.: B.M. E 441–42; Athens 1166 = _J.H.S._ 1889, pl. 1; Millingen-Reinach, 9–10. (6) The Marathonian bull. B.F.: Bibl. Nat. 174. R.F.: B.M. E 442; Naples 2865 = Inghirami, _Vasi Fitt._ 54; Millin-Reinach, i. 43: Noel des Vergers, _Étrurie_, pl. 35 (in Brussels). (7) The slaying of the Minotaur. A very early representation (about 610 B.C.) on the Polledrara hydria in the British Museum (_J.H.S._ xiv. pl. 7: see Chapter XVIII.). B.F.: B.M. B 148, B 205; Munich 333 = Reinach, ii. 119 = _Wiener Vorl._ 1889, 2, 2, and 1155 = _Wiener Vorl._ iii. 7, 2; Berlin 1698 = _Wiener Vorl._ iii. 7, 1; Millin-Reinach, ii. 61 (Taleides). R.F.: B.M. E 441; Helbig, 80 = Reinach, ii. 81 = Baumeister, iii. p. 1790, fig. 1874. The complete set of seven is to be found on the following: B.M. E 84, where the scenes are duplicated on the exterior and interior of the kylix; here the Minotaur forms the central scene of the interior. _Ant. Denkm._ ii. 1 (kylix by Aeson). The following are more or less complete: B.M. E 48 = Frontispiece, Vol. I. (by Duris; five scenes). Louvre G 104 (Euphronios). Reinach, i. 528–32.
