Amphoras: Timeless Vessels of History and Culture From small amphoras dating back to the 16th-18th centuries, to ancient Roman ceramic pots found in Pompeii's House of the Vettii from the 1st century AD, these vessels have a rich history. In Romania's Constanta, the Roman Mosaic Museum showcases stunning amphorae that were once used for storage. Traveling further east, we find ourselves in Maala Village, Yemen at the Native Street Store. Here, one can witness traditional Yemeni amphoras that are still used today for various purposes. These vessels serve as a testament to their enduring practicality and cultural significance. The different types of Roman amphorae spanning from the 2nd century BC to the 3rd century AD highlight their versatility and evolution over time. Each design tells a unique story about ancient trade routes and regional preferences. Moving on to China's dynastic eras, we encounter exquisite examples such as an Amphora-Type Vase with Stylized Flowers from the Jin dynasty (1115-1234). This delicate piece showcases intricate craftsmanship and artistic expression. A Double-Bodied Amphora Vase from Sui dynasty (581-618) captivates with its unusual shape while an Amphora with Three Dragon-Shaped Handles from Tang dynasty (618-907) mesmerizes with its mythical symbolism. Transitioning into Qing dynasty (1644-1911), Kangxi reign mark period introduces us to two remarkable pieces - an Amphora-Shaped Vase bearing Kangxi reign mark and period (1662-1722), showcasing imperial elegance; followed by another Amphora-Shaped Vase known as Liuyeping also featuring Kangxi reign mark (1662-1722). Lastly, a poignant lithograph depicts Bari during a persistent drought in Puglia where people faced tormenting cravings for water.
