Hoplites riding Dolphins ancient Greek pottery art Stainless Steel Water Bottle
- from our Affiliates
This quirky design -featuring four soldiers (Hoplites), wearing armor, holding spears & shields, and riding dolphins- is inspired by an ancient (archaic) Attic red-figure terracotta psykter (vase for cooling wine) of about 520–510 B.C., attributed to Oltos. The psykters were used in symposiums, parties basically. So, you could use this wonderful vessel for a party, too - after all, it can hold all sorts of liquids, not just water, tea or coffee!
