## Image Caption

Attic [amphora](https://www.worldhistory.org/Amphora/) depicting the departure of a warrior, found at [Vulci](https://www.worldhistory.org/Vulci/), attributed to the Dikaios Painter, 510-500 BCE. 
In the centre, a young warrior stands facing a bearded archer in Phrygian costume, who looks down as if in grief. At his feet lies a large hound of mastiff breed, looking up at him.
