Mycenaean jug in the Academic Art Museum Bonn (Inv. Nr. 2)
The stirrup jar, dated between 1340 and 1180 BC, was found in Attica. The largest diameter of the body is very high and increases considerably towards the bottom. The ‘false’ neck is closed by a disc, which is connected to the shoulder via two ribbon handles. The cylindrical spout is attached obliquely to the shoulder. The body is painted with circumferential stripes and on the shoulder, there are rosettes consisting of dots. The stirrup jar is specifically Minoan-Mycenaean shape of vessel, which was probably invented on the island of Krete. Due to the narrow spout the vessel might hae served as a container for perfumes or oil
