Terracotta jug 248833Terracotta jug ca. 750-600 B.C. Cypriot In this extraordinary evocative depiction, a woman faces off a horned serpent whose head looks vaguely like that of a ram. The protagonists appear well matched. In many cultures the line between human beings and animals, real or mythological, is permeable. The representation may be associated with an animal fable. Even more, it recalls the dialogue between Eve and the serpent in the Book of Genesis..

It was excavated at It was excavated at Shaffe, a cemetery site in Luristan in the Zagros Mountains of western Iran. It is often thought that the inhabitants of Luristan in this period were pastoral nomads, who moved with their herds from the high valleys of the Zagros during the summer to lowland pastures in the winter. This theory arises from the dearth of evidence for settlements, and the occurrence of isolated cemetery sites, such as Shaffe. At the same time, the infrastructure necessary for bronze working, an important industry in Luristan, suggests that some sedentary settlements must have existed. In all likelihood these settlements were not located on mounds, but at lower elevations near water sources where agriculture could be practiced.. Jug 324003Terracotta oinochoe (jug).

(13.02 x 11.75 x 11.75 cm), Yaozhou ware Porcelaneous stoneware with molded and carved décor under a celadon glaze, China, 10th-11th century, The antiquarian aesthetic and introspective atmosphere of both the northern and southern Song dynasties (960-1279) is reflected in the quiet elegance of this small censer possibly intended for the scholar's table. The grayish-bodied, porcelaneous stoneware of the Dongchuan district in Shanxi province was known as Yaozhou ware and was commonly referred to as northern celadon. This rare vessel takes the archaic form of an ancient bronze ding tripod. The body is molded with complex, square fretwork, key fret and 's' scroll bands vaguely simulating the interlocking patterns cast into the ancient ceremonial bronzes. A vessel such as this would have been perfectly at home in a Song dynasty scholar's studio.

It has a narrow mouth, and small loop handles at the shoulder. It was excavated on the Tall-i Takht at Pasargadae in what is today southwestern Iran. Pasargadae was the first capital of the Achaemenid Persian Empire, founded by King Cyrus ca. 550 B.C. After his death ca. 530 B.C. further work at the site was carried out by his successors Cambyses and Darius, but in the 510s Darius shifted his focus to the new capital Persepolis. The Tall-i Takht, a massive platform, was probably intended to be the site of a royal palace which was never completed. Instead a large mudbrick structure was built there, possibly a royal storehouse, which stood until ca. 280 B.C. when the Tall-i Takht was burned, possibly during a revolt against the Seleucids.Vessels of this shape are often called pilgrim flasks’ because of their resemblance to the souvenir vessels sold at ChristianJar 6th-3rd century B.C.

Date: 2nd-1st century B.C..The unusual shape of this bowl, with flaring foot and rim, and bell shaped contour resembles an attenuated calyx krater without handles. While exact parallels for the form of this vessel are scarce, its decoration of swags and bows tied with olives are motifs that find close correspondance on Lagynos ware, as demonstrated by 47.11.1 in this case. The stand on which this bowl rests may be a small incense burner, suggested by its similarity to such objects also from Sardis. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.Vase, 1644-1911.
