The word archaic comes from the Greek word archaios (old, original). It is sometimes used as a general term for ancient art, but in Greek art in particular, the Archaic period is from the 6th century BC to around 480 BC, after the Geometric style, and has a stiff yet simple and powerful style. It is characterized by a facial expression called the Archaic smile, because the lips turn slightly up at both ends, which is thought to have been devised to express the liveliness of the figures, making them look like they are smiling.

アルカイクarchaicはギリシア語のアルカイオスarchaios(古い,原初の)に由来する言葉。古代美術の総称として用いられることもあるが,特にギリシア美術において,幾何学様式の後の前6世紀から前480年ころまでをアルカイク時代といい,生硬ながら素朴で力強い様式をもつ。人物の生動感を表すために考案されたと思われる両端がやや上を向いた唇がほほえんでいるように見えるところから,アルカイク・スマイルと呼ばれる表情を特徴とする。
