Jetlagged though I was, this suggestive illustration in the Greek National Museum of Archeology's new exhibit on Eretria caught my attention this afternoon. Happily, the text is gay inclusive when discussing aspects of the symposium, which were attended only by males. "The discussion between men flourished in parallel, along with songs, dexterity games and erotic play, in which occasionally prostitutes took part." Two of the show's several ancient images supporting that view appear after the jump.
In another gallery hall the headbanded lad called to mind Darren Ryleston, of Jonathan's Strong's wise and compassionate new novel Consolation discussed below.
