| 説明 | The cup depicting Theseus fighting against Sinis. The caracters are depicted near a tree: the hero has a spear, the brigand holds a stone. Along the right margin the inscription used for establish the conventional name of the painter, reads:Ελπινικος καλος – Elpinikos awesome.On his way from Troizen to Athens Theseus had to fight with several brigands. The second bandit was Sinis who had overwhelming strength and lived at the Isthmus near Corinth. In literary sources Sinis is called πιτυοκάμπτης (“pine-bender”), because he killed his victims by using a trick with the bent branches of a coniferous tree. In all probability Sinis challenged passing travellers to a trial of strength which involved bending the pine together with him. Then he either bound them to the tree or, unexpectedly, let the bough rebound up. The victim was thrown into the air and killed when he tumbled back down. According to Diodorus and Pausanias, Sinis bound his victims to the branches not of a single tree but of two trees that had been pulled down, and the victims were torn apart when the boughs sprang back up.
