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]

Hedylogos and Pothos are yoked to a chariot, behind which stands Aphrodite. Attic red figure cylindrical pyxis, c. 420–400 BC, attributed to the Meidias Painter.^[1]
