EUTHYMOS (B.D.M., Vol. II, pp. 38-40. Notes sur les Signatures,
pp. I25-13 I). Cf. article on Eumenes for combinations of Eumenos,
Phrygillos and Euthymos.
Euthymos, whose signature is EVO which occurs only on reverses,
shows a chariot driven by winged male figure; in ex. Skylla
chasing.
Percy Gardner, in B M.Cat., Peloponnesus, regards the OV3
on Stater of Elis referred to previously as an artist's signature, and
states: " As to EVO, it is possible that these letters may indicate
the workmanship of the S\racusan die-cutter who worked about
B.C.412-406. If so, this artist must have worked at Elis before he
began to work at Syracuse, for the Syracusan coins are more
advanced in style, and the signature on them runs from left to
right, not from right to left as at Elis."
The Engraver's Syracusan productions comprise:
