Descripción
Drinking vessels without handles or feet that rest on their side or rim when not in use. Often made in the form of an animal head, which is an adaptation of the Greek rhyton. The term refers to the practice of handing such a cup to a person who was on horseback prior to setting out on a journey or the hunt.
