There is a passage in the Odyssey where Odysseus is telling of his adventures as a raider, which some have thought might resemble the actual activities of one of the so-called Sea Peoples.

Google "Vapheio cups" and the first item is "images of Vapheio cups" which has a lot of good photos of them. The Wikipedia article "Vaphio" also has a link to some images but they aren't as close-up.

The site is definitely worth a visit. Beautiful cups showing capturing bulls. Then many other photos of other artifacts and sites from that era.
