Delphi
Gigantomachy from the Siphnian Treasury in Delphi, North Frieze, 530-525 BC, Delphi Archaeological Museum. On the left side Apollo and his sister Artemis against the giants. One giant tries to escape (his name from what we can read is Tharos or Ka[n]tharos). Ephialtes lies dead on the ground. A group of three other giants on the right side (Hyperphas, Alektos and one whose name is lost). The proud artist of this work wrote his name on the shield of the last of the three giants but it was lost
