Abstract

Only two papyri (P.Oxy. 5355 and PSI 981) are preserved of the lost Greek novel known as Calligone, whose female protagonist goes to war as an ally of the Amazons. Here, I propose new hypotheses concerning the historical events which may have inspired the action of the novel and suggest a reconstruction of the plot.
