HOW WAS THIS TYPICAL OF ITS TIME
• ‘Though the Anavyssos kouros was made around 530 BC, a century after Kleobis and Biton, he stands in the same pose as they. This is hardly surprising since the method of carving remained unchanged throughout the archaic period.’

REVIEWS
• ‘Though the Anavyssos kouros was made around 530 BC, a century after Kleobis and Biton, he stands in the same pose as they. This is hardly surprising since the method of carving remained unchanged throughout the archaic period. Nevertheless , important naturalistic innovations had been produced.’ Susan Woodford.
