Roman jug of the I-II century AD.
Bronze.
Measures: 23,5 x 14 x 13 cm.
Roman jug of globular body, with moldings in its shoulders, in the neck and in the mouth (this last one slightly exvasada). It has a slightly sinuous vertical handle, welded to the mouth. Bronze was one of the most common materials used for tableware and everyday objects in Roman times, and was even used to make small furniture, embossed and cast, such as the brazier from the temple of Isis in Pompeii, supported by four feet in the shape of a feline claw. Bronze was also used in most of the pieces of armor worn by soldiers in parades.
