Terracotta oinochoe (jug) late 4th-early 3rd century B.C. Greek, South Italian, Apulian Yellow-slipped pottery is unusual in Apulia but typically occurs in pairs of oinochoai and paterae. The jug served to pour liquids and the patera was one of several shapes used for offerings. The handle of the patera is in the shape of a youth with hands raised; two rams form the transition to the bowl; and a ram's head appears below the youth's feeta convention for bronze handles since the Archaic period..
