Moschidas
Moschidas ( ancient Greek Μοσχίδας ) was a Greek coroplast of the 4th century BC. Chr.
Moschidas was active in the great Greek city of Taranto . His name is passed down through two inscriptions ΜΟΕΧΙΔΑ written in the genitive form, which can be found on the only two works that can be clearly assigned to him. One piece shows a reclining symposiast , the other is a theater mask. Both sculptures are in the Museo Archeologico Nazionale in Bari .
