Its origin is peculiar: the founders were <a href="/wiki/Partheniae" title="Partheniae">Partheniae</a> ("sons of virgins"), sons of unmarried Spartan women and <i><a href="/wiki/Perioeci" title="Perioeci">Perioeci</a></i> (free men, but not citizens of Sparta); these out-of-wedlock unions were permitted extraordinarily by the Spartans to increase the prospective number of soldiers (only the citizens of Sparta could become soldiers) during the bloody <a href="/wiki/Messenian_Wars" title="Messenian Wars">Messenian Wars</a>, but later they were retroactively nullified, and the sons were then obliged to leave Greece forever. Phalanthus, the Parthenian leader, went to <a href="/wiki/Delphi" title="Delphi">Delphi</a> to consult the <a href="/wiki/Sibyl" title="Sibyl">oracle</a>: the puzzling answer designated the harbour of Taranto as the new home of the exiles.

Another tradition indicates Taras as the founder of the city; the symbol of the Greek city (as well as of the modern city) depicts the legend of Taras being saved from a shipwreck by riding a dolphin that was sent to him by Poseidon. Taranto increased its power, becoming a commercial power and a sovereign city of <a href="/wiki/Magna_Graecia" title="Magna Graecia">Magna Graecia</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-italythisway1_21-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-italythisway1-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>. </p><p>Its independence and power came to an end as the Romans expanded throughout Italy. Taranto won the first of two wars against Rome for the control of Southern Italy: it was helped by <a href="/wiki/Pyrrhus_of_Epirus" title="Pyrrhus of Epirus">Pyrrhus</a>, king of Greek <a href="/wiki/Epirus_(ancient_state)" title="Epirus (ancient state)">Epirus</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-italythisway1_21-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-italythisway1-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> who surprised Rome with the use of <a href="/wiki/War_elephant" title="War elephant">war elephants</a> in battle, a thing never seen before by the Romans. Rome won the second war in 272 BC.

The denomination was a Nomos, a die-cast silver coin whose weight, size and purity were controlled by the state. The highly artistic coins presented the symbol of the city, Taras being saved by a dolphin, with the reverse side showing the likeness of a <a href="/wiki/Hippocamp" class="mw-redirect" title="Hippocamp">hippocamp</a>, a horse-fish amalgam which is depicted in mythology as the beast that drew Poseidon's chariot. </p><p>Taras was also the centre of a thriving decorated <a href="/wiki/Greek_pottery" class="mw-redirect" title="Greek pottery">Greek pottery</a> industry during the 4th century BC. Most of the <a href="/wiki/South_Italian" class="mw-redirect" title="South Italian">South Italian</a> Greek vessels known as <a href="/wiki/Basilican" class="mw-redirect" title="Basilican">Basilican</a> ware were made in different workshops in the city. </p><p>Unfortunately, none of the names of the artists have survived, so modern scholars have been obliged to give the recognizable artistic hands and workshops nicknames based on the subject matter of their works, museums which possess the works, or individuals who have distinguished the works from others. Some of the most famous of the Apulian vase painters at Taras are now called: the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Iliupersis_Painter&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Iliupersis Painter (page does not exist)">Iliupersis Painter</a>, the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Lycurgus_Painter&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Lycurgus Painter (page does not exist)">Lycurgus Painter</a>, the <a href="/w/index.php?title=Gioia_del_Colle_Painter&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Gioia del Colle Painter (page does not exist)">Gioia del Colle Painter</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Darius_Painter" title="Darius Painter">Darius Painter</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Underworld_Painter" title="Underworld Painter">Underworld Painter</a>, and the <a href="/w/index.php?title=White_Sakkos_Painter&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="White Sakkos Painter (page does not exist)">White Sakkos Painter</a>, among others. </p><p>The wares produced by these workshops were usually large elaborate vessels intended for mortuary use. The forms produced included <a href="/wiki/Volute_krater" class="mw-redirect" title="Volute krater">volute kraters</a>, <a href="/wiki/Loutrophoros" title="Loutrophoros">loutrophoroi</a>, <a href="/wiki/Patera" title="Patera">paterai</a>, <a href="/wiki/Oinochoe" class="mw-redirect" title="Oinochoe">oinochoai</a>, <a href="/wiki/Lekythos" title="Lekythos">lekythoi</a>, <a href="/wiki/Fish_plate" title="Fish plate">fish plates</a>, etc. The decoration of these vessels was <a href="/wiki/Red_figure" class="mw-redirect" title="Red figure">red figure</a> (with figures reserved in red clay fabric, while the background was covered in a black gloss), with overpainting (<a href="/w/index.php?title=Sovradipinto&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Sovradipinto (page does not exist)">sovradipinto</a>) in white, pink, yellow, and maroon slips. </p><p>Often the style of the drawings is florid and frilly, as was already the fashion in 4th-century Athens. Distinctive South Italian features also begin to appear. Many figures are shown seated on rocks. Floral motifs become very ornate, including spiraling vines and leaves, <a href="/wiki/Rose" title="Rose">roses</a>, <a href="/wiki/Lily" class="mw-redirect" title="Lily">lilies</a>, <a href="/wiki/Poppy" title="Poppy">poppies</a>, sprays of <a href="/wiki/Lauraceae" title="Lauraceae">laurel</a>, <a href="/wiki/Acanthus_(plant)" title="Acanthus (plant)">acanthus leaves</a>. Often the subject matter consists of naiskos scenes (scenes showing the statue of a deceased person in a naos, a miniature temple or shrine). Most often the naiskos scene occupies one side of the vase, while a mythological scene occupies the other.
