exaleiptra (vessels (containers), <containers by form>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Ancient Greek containers for liquid, perhaps perfume (scented oil), with a very distinctive shape: an oblate spheroid bowl with turned-in rim, short or tall foot, and lid with finial. The lids are rarely preserved. In vase paintings the exaleiptron most often appears in scenes of women bathing or participating in funerary rituals. Other ancient names have sometimes been used in modern times to refer to this vessel shape: kothon, plemochoe, and smematotheke (or smegmatotheke).

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 古希臘用來盛裝香水（香精油）等液體的容器，形狀十分具有特色：扁球形的碗，碗邊向內彎曲，腳柱有矮有高，蓋子有尖尖的頂端。此容器的蓋子大多未能保存至今。exaleiptra 扁碗的繪圖常是女人沐浴或參加喪禮儀式的圖案。現代常以 kothon、plemochoe 及 smematotheke（或 smegmatotheke）等其他古臘名詞用指此容器。 |
| Dutch ..... Oud-Griekse houders voor vloeistoffen, wellicht parfum (reukolie), met een zeer kenmerkende vorm: een afgeplatte bolvormige kom met een inwaarts gedraaide rand, een korte of lange voet en een deksel met fioel. De deksels zijn zelden bewaard gebleven. In vaasschilderingen komt de exaleiptron meestal voor in taferelen met badende vrouwen of vrouwen die deelnemen aan begrafenisrituelen. Ook andere antieke namen (‘kothon’, ‘plemochoa’ en ’smegmatothèkè’ of ‘smematothèkè’)zijn in de moderne tijd wel gebruikt om te verwijzen naar deze vaatwerkvorm. |
