In 1928, and again in 1937, parts of a large-scale bronze horse and nearly complete jockey were recovered from the sea off Cape Artemision in Greece, where they went down in a shipwreck. These original Hellenistic sculptures, known together as the "Horse and Jockey Group from Artemision," are among the very few surviving bronze sculptures from antiquity. Sean Hemingway has been allowed by the National Museum in Athens to investigate the horse and jockey statuary group as no one ever has before, and in this book, combining archaeological and art historical methods of investigation, he provides the first in-depth study of this rare and beautiful monument. New technical analyses of the statues by Helen Andreopoulou-Mangou form an appendix to the volume. Hemingway begins with an introduction to Hellenistic bronze statuary. He then recounts with riveting detail the discovery and painstaking restoration of the statue group, describing the technique of its creation and carefully reviewing scholarly knowledge and speculation about it. He also provides a valuable compendium of what is known about ancient Greek horse racing, the most prestigious and splendid of all Greek sports. His study will become the definitive resource on this unique sculpture from ancient Greece.

La 4e de couverture indique : "Après les quatre volumes du Corpus des inscriptions grecques d'Illyrie méridionale et d'Épire (I 1, I 2, II et III) consacrés aux inscriptions grecques d'Albanie, ce nouvel ouvrage présente les inscriptions grecques de Molossie ou de régions extérieures qui concernent des Molosses. Dans une première partie sont rassemblées les sources littéraires grecques et latines qui traitent de la Molossie et notamment de Dodone. La deuxième partie est consacrée à l'histoire de la Molossie et du sanctuaire de Dodone à partir des sources littéraires, archéologiques et épigraphiques. Elle intéresse aussi les régions voisines (Thesprôtie, Cassopie et même la Chaonie unie au royaume des Éacides dès le début du IIIe siècle avant J.-C., puis dans le koinon des Épirotes jusqu'à la catastrophe de 167). La troisième partie du livre rassemble 298 inscriptions de Molossie ou concernant des Molosses dans d'autres région s du monde grec antique, ainsi que quelques documents nouveaux en relation avec les autres régions présentées dans les quatre premiers volumes. Les lamelles oraculaires ne figurent pas dans ce volume. *** Following the four volumes of the Corpus des inscriptions grecques d'Illyrie méridionale et d'Épire (I 1, I 2, II et III) dealing with Greek inscriptions from Albania, this new work presents the Greek inscriptions from Molossia or from other regions related to the Molossians. In the first part the Greek and Latin literary sources are presented, which deal with Molossia and in particular Dodona. The second part covers the history of Molossia and the sanctuary of Dodona from literary, archaeological and epigraphic sources. This part also examines neighbouring regions (Thesprotis, Cassope and even the Chaonians united with the kingdom of the Aiakides from the beginning of the 3rd century BC, then in the koinon of Epirotes until the disaster of 167). The third part of the book b rings together 298 inscriptions from Molossia or concerning Molossians in other regions of the ancient Greek world, as well as some new documents related to the other regions presented in the first four volumes. The oracular lamellae are not included in this volume."
