  • Landmarks Guide for Older Children
    Landmarks Guide for Older Children Bryan Hunt American, born 1947 Amphora 1982 Bronze Subject: History Activity: Create a museum display for an object you use everyday Materials: An object from your home, pencil, and paper Vocabulary: Amphora, nonfunctional, obsolete, vessel Introduction An amphora is a type of clay vase with two handles that was used in ancient Greece. Thousands of years ago, these vessels served many purposes: They were used to store food, water, and wine. The vessels were often painted with figures that told stories about history and the gods. A person living in ancient Greece would sometimes have the same amphora throughout their lifetime. The Greeks did not have many other means for storing or transporting food and liquids, so amphorae were very important to them. These vessels, which were once a part of everyday life for the Greeks, are now kept in museums, where we can see them and learn about the people who used them. We no longer use large clay vessels like amphorae for our everyday needs. We use other types of containers instead. In making this sculpture, the artist was interested in exploring how the amphora and our ideas about it have changed over time. Notice that Hunt’s amphora is made of metal instead of clay; in other words, it is nonfunctional, and very different from a traditional Greek amphora. Questions What types of containers do we use What can these objects tell us about the today instead of amphorae? past and the people that lived then? Can you think of any other objects that What happens to objects when they were very useful to people in the past but are no longer useful to us? that are no longer useful to us today? Bryan Hunt, continued Activity Choose an object from your home that you use everyday.

  • Amphora-Aged Cos Wine: New Or Ancient
    AMPHORA-AGED COS WINE: NEW OR ANCIENT There is something simply amazing to view a winery making its top wines in a series of earthenware jars. Is there shock-horror? Yes for a technocrat trained on the finer points of grades of stainless steel. But no for someone on a path of discovery to understand just what the practitioners do when there is a choice to return to the roots of winemaking practice. And the use of clay pots has been a natural winemaking event year-on-year in Georgia for as far back as 6000 years BC. Recently a colleague advised me that a 2012 trip to this old world winemaking country included a visit to a monastery using the clay pot containers continuously for 1000 years (a lot of vintages there to build up tartrate!) So I was recently on the path of discovery in Sicily to visit two famous properties using earthenware jars for winemaking and aging (COS in Vittoria) and Cornelissen (on Etna) who ages new wine similarly. There is a space in between with the technology path-that of using oak barrels as storage vessels, and over the past decade used, large (3-5,000 litre) format casks have proved to be valuable aging means for high quality wines. Casks displaced earthenware vessels as they were more practical. However keeping large casks fresh and clean is a never-ending job, and at times capable of going wrong (cask has to be burnt). Also the cask remains practical for making larger volumes of wine, while re-introducing the clay pot makes sense for small parcel winemaking as pot management is a lot simpler than in the 15th century.

  • 6. Hellenistic Stamped Amphora Handles*
    Mark L. Lawall 6. Hellenistic stamped Amphora Handles* 6.1 Introduction When the Staatsmarkt Basilika and Prytaneion areas were fi rst excavated the dominant methodology for the study of transport amphoras was to collect the stamped handles and discard the remainder. Thankfully, the modus operandi at Ephesos has changed along with other sites in recent decades and a much more complete view of the amphora record has appeared from more recently excavated areas1. Despite the partial nature of the extant record from the Staatsmarkt and Prytaneion excavations, it seems valuable to publish what was saved in the likelihood that these data may be coordinated with more complete records from other sectors of excavation at the site. The date of construction of the Hellenistic Stoa from the amphora handles Many of the stamped amphora handles were found in the building fi lls for the Roman period Stoa-Basilika and the Prytaneion , but the presence of considerable, and considerably earlier, Hellenistic material in such fi lls is entirely in keeping with fi nds elsewhere in Hellenistic Ephesos . The chronological span of such material is entirely appropriate for the general history of the site2. The earliest independently datable stamps date no earlier than ca. 280 BC, with most of the early material dating to the middle to third quarter of the 3rd century. When Hellenistic material at Ephesos is found associated with Hellenistic public building projects, such as the * The authors did not see the amphora handles in Ephesos ; the stamps were studied from photographs and rubbings. Maria SAVVA- TIANOU-PETROPOULAKOU, Athen s wrote the initial manuscript for the Rhodian stamps.

  • Amphora (Small)
    An Artifact Speaks • Artifact Information Sheet Artifact Name: Panathenaic-style Amphora (small) Time Period/Date of the Original: 410 BCE Culture/Religion Group: Ancient Greek Material: Clay and pigment Reproduction? Yes Background Information: An amphora is a two-handled, slender-necked pot used for food storage. Most often, the pot was used to hold oil, wine, olives, or grains. The silhouette and size among amphoræ varied greatly: unglazed examples many feet tall were used to transport large amounts of food for trade across the Mediterranean Sea, and small, finely painted versions were found in upper-class homes. An amphora painted in this style—a representation of an armed goddess Athena on one side and an athletic contest on the other—had a very specific purpose. It was a Panathenaic prize. The Greater Panathenaia were held in Athens every four years. The Lesser Panathenaia were held the other years. The contests in the Greater Games included musical events, athletic competitions, and sports for Athenians only, such as a race with torches between villages and throwing a javelin from horseback. During the Lesser Games, only the latter sports were held. The winners of the athletic competitions won the special amphorae. Each would be filled with oil from the olives from the sacred grove of Athena. How many amphorae a winner received depended on the age category of the competitor (boy, youth, adult) and the the type of competition. The greatest number of amphorae—140—was awarded to the winner of the chariot race. Three aspects of this amphora show that the original was of the Panathenaic style but not a true prize.

  • Effects of Closure Type on Consumers' Perception of Wine Quality
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Emily M. Jorgensen for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Technology presented on August 12, 2004. Title: Effects of Closure Type on Consumers' Perception of Wine Quality. Abstract Approved: Anna B. Marin Natural corks have long been used as wine closures. However, they are associated with causing multiple adverse effects to the wine they are attempting to preserve. Alternative closures such as synthetic corks and screw caps were developed in order to reduce and/or eliminate these problems. However, the major cause of concern regarding these closures is of consumers' acceptance. The effect of how three types of closures (Natural Cork, Synthetic Cork and Screw Cap) affected wine consumers' perceptions of the quality of wine was examined in this study. This project was divided into two experiments. The first experiment determined if frequent wine consumers could detect sensorial differences between the three closure types. The second experiment ascertained if and how regular wine consumers' perceptions were altered based on the type of closure with which the wine samples were bottled. It was determined that the wine consumers could not significantly detect a difference between any of the three closure type samples based only on sensory stimuli. The results from the second experiment found for the Chardonnay samples, the knowledge that the wine samples came from a natural cork or a synthetic cork did not significantly affect the liking, quality or purchase intent scores. However, when the panelists knew that the sample was bottled with a screw cap, they thought it was of lower quality, were less willing to buy a wine like the sample and they lowered the price they were willing to pay.
