Hedylogos
Hedylogos (Ancient Greek: Ἡδυλόγος, lit. 'sweet-voiced, flattering') is a figure who appears in ancient Greek vase paintings. A surviving example on a red-figure pyxis from the late 5th century BC shows Hedylogos, alongside his brother Pothos, drawing the chariot of Aphrodite.[1] An oenochoe, originating from close to Thebes and dating to around 370 BC, also depicts him alongside Aphrodite.[2]
