A Cantharus, a Greek drinking cup

A cantharos is a Greek cup used to hold wine, possibly for drinking or for ritual use or offerings. The cantharos seems to be an attribute of Dionysos, the god of wine, who was associated with vegetation and fertility. As well as a banqueting cup, they could be used in pagan rituals as a symbol of rebirth or resurrection. Drawing.
