Herakles was originally taught to play the kithara by Eumolpus, the founder of the Eleusinian Mysteries, however Eumolpus was replaced as tutor by Linos. Their teaching methods were very different and Linos made the error of striking his pupil. Herakles became enraged, smashing his instrument over the hapless teacher’s head, killing him instantly. For the subject of Herakles playing a kithara, see J. Boardman, 'Herakles’, Lexicon Iconographicum Mythologiae Classicae, vol. IV, 1988, Zurich and Munich, nos 1444-1468. For a discussion of mercantile dipinto see A. W. Johnston, Trademarks on Greek Vases, Warminster, 1979.
