| Summary: | The article proposes to study the various contexts in which the hydrias are depicted beyond its obvious practical use. For example, the hydria is used in different contexts such as the agonistic representations of victory, the nymphai at the fountain or as a valuable object used to pay a ransom. In each case, the hydrias have a plurality and obvious use, which need to be treated in parallel in order to determine each and every sense which covers this object in the attic iconography of the 5th B.C. On top of this, it is important to understand in what way this vase has an obvious polysemical use, and is also a sign of passage from one state to another for the person using it. |
