Three-handled jug with relief medallions. Culture: Roman. Dimensions: H. 8 9/16 in. (21.7 cm); diameter 7 1/4 in. (18.5 cm). Date: late 2nd-early 3rd century A.D..This unusual three-handled jug is decorated with molded appliqué disks. Two are from the same mold and depict the Greek mythological figures Atalanta and Hippomenes. The third appliqué shows a religious procession with the cult statue of the Egyptian goddess Isis being paraded in a cart. The jug is said to have been found at Arausio (modern Orange, Southern France), but it was probably made in a workshop at either Lyon or Vienne in the upper Rhône Valley.
