Aristonothos

Aristonothos Krater, Blinding of Polyphemus.

Aristonothos (fl. 7th c. BC) was a Greek Potter probably from Euboea. He is the earliest known potter. He is known from a signature on the so-called Aritsonothos Krater found in Caere Italy.

On the one side the blinding of the Polyphemus is shown, a sea battle with hoplites is painted on the other side.
