Did the ancients drink out of ceramic jugs?

[hoplite14gr]

Not only the ancients drunk or stored water in clay vessels but moderns too.

In this artistically colored photograph from 1929 you see Greek women in 1920 bringing water home from the river in clay vessels.

Remote villages got running water after 1950. Most people drank in clay cups.
A metal or porselan vessel for drinking was offered to the guest only and it was considered a mark of high honor.

Kind regards
