caption_attribution_description: English: Odysseus (wearing the pilos hat) and Diomedes stealing the horses of Thracian king Rhesus they have just killed. Apulian red-figure situla, from Ruvo. Français&#160;: Ulysse (portant le pilos) et Diomède volant les chevaux du roi thrace Rhésos qu'ils viennent de tuer. Situle apulienne à figures rouges, provenance Ruvo. Italiano: Vaso a forma di situla rinvenuto a Ruvo. Reso, re di Tracia e alleato dei Troiani, aveva dei cavalli bianchi dei quali un oracolo aveva predetto che se fossero riusciti a bere l'acqua dello Xanto, Troia non sarebbe stata presa. Per questa ragione Ulisse e Diomede assalirono di notte Reso nel suo accampamento, lo uccisero, e condussero via i suoi celebri cavalli (scena rappresentata sul vaso).
