Ephebos (ἔφηβος) (often in the plural epheboi), also anglicised as ephebe (plural:ephebes) or archaically ephebus (plural: ephebi), is a Greek word for an adolescentage group or a social status reserved for that age in Antiquity.
Unearthed in several pieces in Pesaro in 1530, this statue was restored and identified as the young Dionysos.
The sculpture is an oil-lamp holder made by a central or southern Italian workshop in the early augustan era and used to light the banquets of a patrician family. Formerly considered the most perfect Greek statue, it is in fact an eclectic work, possibly a copy of a lost late work by Polykleitos.
