The first one is probably Syracusan during the comflict between Oligarchs ad Democrats just before Timoleon took control.

Second one is from the Greek colony of LEONTINOI.
The anthropomorphic bull is the local rivergod TIRIAS or LISSOS
They had an Olympic champion in the chariot race and probaly the victor is depicted on the other side.

Hope I helped.

Kind regards
