APGRD Notes
Sophocles apparently wrote three different plays on Thyestes. We do not know when they were 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 they would have been performed in Athens.
