Goat’s head rhyton showing Eros with a box

The form of the goat’s head is different from that of 65.34, which means they have not been formed in the same mould.

A rhyton is a vessel for liquids such as wine (which in the ancient Greek world was regularly diluted with water). A rhyton was used as an elaborate drinking vessel or in ceremonies such as libation (the pouring of a drink offering to the gods).
