Metapontum founded by Epeius and his tools displayed in the Temple of Athena:
Pseudo- Aristotle On Marvelous Things Heard 840A.108, “in the district called Gar-
garia, near Metapontum, they say that there is a temple of the Hellenian Athene
where the tools of Epeius are dedicated, with which he made the wooden horse. . . .
Athena appeared to him in a dream and demanded that he should dedicate the
tools to her.” Per Justin 20.2, Metapontum was founded by Epeius, the hero who
constructed the wooden horse at Troy; in proof of which the inhabitants showed
his tools in the Temple of Athena/Minerva. - De Grummond 2006, 137– 38, fig. VI.31. Images of blacksmiths, craftsmen, and
