Komast figures (literally "revellers") on black-figure vases have
long been associated with the worship of Dionysos and the origins
of Greek drama. In this fully illustrated study, Tyler Jo Smith
takes a fresh look at the evidence for komasts, both on vases and
in other artistic media produced throughout Archaic Greece. She
concludes that the meaning of the dancing figures differs between
different regions, such as Corinth, Athens, and Laconia. Komasts
are instrumental to the spread of the human figure in early Archaic
Greek art and a vital link in the story of both visual and festival
culture in Greece during the sixth century BC.
