During the 5 th century, many satyrs<br />

with erect phalloi pursue maenads,<br />

but, on many other vases like these,<br />

the satyrs become “gentlemen” where<br />

the scenes are not pursuits and the<br />

phalloi are not erect.<br />

Both of these are probably scenes<br />

of ritual where the satyr replaces<br />

an Athenian male citizen.
