Did the ancients drink out of ceramic jugs?

Neat. Do you find it makes a feasible water bottle for carrying around?

About the leather bottle, it depends on what you mean by "be fine." It works, with certain care, and it looks cool. But I've found only a few mentions of Classical leather vessels for liquid and no descriptions or pictures other than of large wineskins. I figured a pottery container would be more clearly authentic -- if I'm using it in the right way.
