Description: The Date of the Adonia at Athens Author: Walton, Francis Reading Title: The Date of the Adonia at Athens Publication: Cambridge, Massachusetts: The Harvard Theological Review, 1938 Description: Softcover. "Three dates have been suggested for the celebration of the festival of Adonis at Athens, all of which have found adherents in recent years. Deubner, relying solely on the apparent evidence of vase-paintings, as interpreted by Hauser, placed the Adonia at the beginning of autumn. The only argument in favor of so late a date, that bunches of fresh grapes appeared in representations of the κῆποι 'Aδώνιδος' was disposed of by Nock, who pointed out that grapes were also kept until the feast of Choes, Anthesterion 12."
