Abstract

This project aims to analyze sexuality and its relationship with eroticism produced in Apulia of the 4th century BC, from the iconographic perspective. Through the analysis of images in vases and their respective finding places, located in Ruvo di Puglia, Italy, we will observe how this dialogue was constructed by examining and identifying the importance of eroticism and sexuality for this region.
