Black-figured "Siana" cup, Greek, 575-550 BCE. Both sides of this cup show activities that may be interpreted as rituals in honour of Demeter, a goddess mostly concerned with women's lives, agriculture and fertility. The first man whom Demeter had taught to plough was Bouzyges and members of that Athenian family performed an annual ceremony at the foot of the Acropolis.     GR 1906.12-15.1
