English: The scene on this "krater" depicts another milestone in the life of a young man. At the culmination of years of training, a warrior stands beside the family altar preparing to leave for war. He wears a short tunic under a "cuirass" (breastplate) and holds his spear in his left hand. A young woman on the right readies his shield and stretches out her hand to pass his helmet across the altar.
A "krater" is a large, wide-mouth vessel used for mixing water and wine; if the handles are in the low position seen here, it is called a "calyx krater."
