Exekias, an ancient Greek vase-painter and potter who was active in Athens between roughly 545 BC and 530 BC[1], depicted warfare in ancient Greece in many of his works of art. This depiction of warfare is critical in understanding what war at the time was like. One of the most notable is on the Dionysus Crossing the Sea Eye Cup. Another notable depiction of warfare from Exekias is on the Death of Achilles Amphora. These two works of artwork are good examples of Exekias' depictions of warfare in ancient Greece.
