Resumen de Reconfiguring the Gods on the Parthenon Frieze

Jenifer Neils

  • Of the many issues pertaining to the Ionic frieze of the Parthenon, the depiction of the twelve gods and their two attendants is particularly enigmatic. This paper presents new evidence for the identification of Hera’s attendant as Hebe; argues that the gods are arranged according to their significance for Persian war battles, with land deities on the south and sea deities on the north; posits a spatial configuration in which the gods are seated in a semicircle in front of the center scene; and discusses the influence of this section of the frieze on later art.
