Production notes: 
It has been suggested that this play was identical with Helen's Wedding. No fragments survive. Assuming it was a separate play, we do not know when this play was first produced. The date range given here is based on Sophocles' first competition (Mar. Par) and his last (Life of Euripides 2). It is assumed here that the play would have been performed in Athens.
