Timeline

Kouroi appear to become more naturalistic with time, and the timeline below is arranged from newest to oldest, 500 BCE to 600 BCE. If the Getty kouros is authentic, it would be dated to c.530 BCE along with the Anavysos kouros, the Piraeus Apollo, and the kouros from Kea. Note particularly the development of features such as the hair, face, abdomen muscles, knees, and feet.
