Griechische Kunst: Die Amazonen Their marriage-law (Amazons) lays it down that no girl shall wed till she has killed a man in battle. Sometimes it happens that a woman dies unmarried at an advanced age, having never been able in her whole lifetime to fulfil the condition. Herodotus, ( probably the Pheidias Amazon) See also: (probably the Kresilas Amazon) (probably the Polykleitos Amazon copy produced by Sosikles)
