Does anyone know anything about a local hero from Attica called 
Echelos, or a young woman (heroine?) named Basile? The former can be 
seen abducting the latter on p. 156 (fig. 146) of Boardman's _Greek 
Art_ (4th edition).

Images of the same votive offering are also at Perseus

I'm interested in the story, if it's known. Thanks in advance for any clues.
