The peoples we term ancient Greeks were obsessed with nudity, especially the male form, but there is a difference between artistic ideal and behavior. Nudity in life was generally taboo, but may have been used as a kind of ritual costume in special circumstances (based on artistic and linguistic evidence). That said, a blacksmith who practiced his trade with a bare upper body wouldn't be in business long ;-) Genuinely curious here, could you please post links if you have come across archaeological evidence that the Greeks spent their days in the buff?

That's one kinky blacksmith wearing only his apron. The centaur is of course naked as well. I'm curious as to the fee for services rendered.

Tip #1 Compliment their wainscoting.
Tip #2 It's rude to stare directly at the cornices. There's a personality behind that sexy facade.
