His name is related to the Latin word merx ("merchandise"; compare merchant, commerce, etc.), mercari (to trade), and merces (wages).[2] In his earliest forms, he appears to have been related to the Etruscan deity Turms, but most of his characteristics and mythology were borrowed from the analogous Greek deity, Hermes. Latin writers rewrote Hermes' myths and substituted his name with that of Mercury. However, there are at least two myths that involve Mercury that are Roman in origin. In Virgil's Aeneid, Mercury reminds Aeneas of his mission to found the city of Rome. In Ovid's Fasti, Mercury is assigned to escort the nymph Larunda to the underworld.

This rare cache of approximately 95 ancient Roman silver objects was discovered in March 1830 by a farmer plowing his field near the village of Berthouville in Normandy. An extraordinary group of luxury vessels—including bowls and pitchers, many with figural decoration, as well as two silver statuettes of the Roman god Mercury—the objects are associated with a nearby sanctuary of the god Mercury and date to the first through third centuries A.D. Four large, late antique silver missoria (plates) belonging to the Cabinet are also part of the conservation project.

  • (The So-Called Warren Cup) and Roman Silver Plate
    BABESCH 90 (2015), 155-198. doi: 10.2143/BAB.90.0.3089919 A Cantharus from ancient Betar near Jerusalem (the so-called Warren Cup) and Roman Silver Plate Dyfri Williams Abstract This article examines in detail a Roman silver cantharus, said to be from ancient Betar, near Jerusalem (Pales- tine), and attempts to set it in its wider material, social and historical contexts. After consideration of the construction and condition, the scenes are discussed and attention drawn to the Greek elements in the iconog- raphy of the scenes of homosexual intercourse, especially the hair, which also provides a guide to the age and status of the figures. The possible impact of the iconography on the users of the cantharus, the status of its purchaser, and its final archaeological context are all touched on. Connections between small-scale vessels in various materials are also noted, especially Arretine pottery. Finally, questions are raised about individual craftsmen and workshops, signing and copying, and even chronology.* INTRODUCTION scenes of homosexual intercourse remain (figs 1-2). It is first recorded on the antiquities market The silver cantharus said to be from ancient Betar in 1909 and was purchased by the great collector (19th and early 20th centuries Bittir; modern Battir) Edward Perry Warren in 1911.

  • The Religious Economics of Crisis : the Papal Use of Liturgical Vessels
    Michele Renee Salzman The Religious Economics of Crisis : The Papal Use of Liturgical Vessels as Symbolic Capital in Late Antiquity Abstract This paper explores the multiple meanings of the restoration of liturgical silver plate by the bishops of Rome after the sacks of Rome in 410, 455, and 472. The author argues that this act was of primary importance to the bishops of Rome as a key means of reestablishing their hegemony over Christian communities in the city after periods of upheaval. By replacing lost liturgical plate, the bishops of Rome performed the role of patron in lieu of the emperor or wealthy private donor. Certainly, the dona- tion of silver and gold in sacred contexts in the classical pagan world provides prec- edents for this practice and for its interpretation. But the donation of liturgical vessels must be understood within its specific Christian context. Because the donation of liturgical vessels was part of the foundation of a late antique church, their replace- ment by the bishop was an act of refoundation of the community of the faithful. And owing to the centrality of sacralised eating and drinking in the Christian rite of the Eucharist, the bishop’s replenishment of liturgical silver also offered the individual and the community the promise of salvation. Thus the donations of silver and gold liturgical plate by bishops demonstrate the multiple ways in which the wealth of the church operated as symbolic capital, allowing the bishops to reinforce their author- ity over the community of the faithful in response to crisis. Keywords: Berthouville Treasure, bishops, Christianity, liturgical silver and gold plate, Rome, salvation, foundation rites, papacy In scholarship on late antique Rome, the religious power of the bishop of Rome is most often assessed by focusing on his building of churches, resi- dences and monasteries.1 This gauge of papal power is shaped in part by 1 For the seminal work on churches in Rome, see Krautheimer 1977.
