Terracotta alabastron (perfume vase)

Terracotta alabastron (perfume vase). Culture: Greek, Attic. Dimensions: H. 5 13/16 in. (14.7 cm); diameter 13/16 in. (2 cm). Date: ca. 480 B.C.. Woman and Nike at altar, each with phiale. Offering libations seems to have been an important role for women. Here a Nike (personification of victory), who looks very much like an Athenian lady with wings, and a mortal counterpart flank an altar. Each holds a phiale (libation bowl). It is likely that the sacrifice is for the successful return of a warrior or athlete.
