An aryballos (Greek: ἀρύβαλλος; plural aryballoi) was a small spherical or globular flask with a narrow neck used in Ancient Greece.〔"aryballos" in ''The New Encyclopaedia Britannica''. Chicago: Encyclopaedia Britannica Inc., 15th edn., 1992, Vol. 1, p. 611.〕 It was used to contain perfume or oil, and is often depicted in vase paintings being used by athletes during bathing. In these depictions, the vessel is at times attached by a strap to the athlete's wrist, or hung by a strap from a peg on the wall. The shape of the aryballos originally came from the oinochoe of the Geometric period of the 9th century BCE, a globe-shaped wine jar. By the Proto-Corinthian period of the following century, it had attained its definitive shape, going from spherical to ovoid to conical, and finally back to spherical. This definitive form has a wide, flat mouth, and a single small handle. Some later variations have bell-shaped mouths, a second handle, and/or a flat base. Potters also created inventive shapes for aryballoi. ==Gallery== File:Cypriotic White Painted Ware in Vienna 14.JPG|Cypriotic geometric white painted ware, 850–750 BC File:Aryballos owl 630 BC Staatliche Antikensammlungen.jpg|Owl-shaped, Proto-Corinthian, 630 BC Image:Aryballos Kameiros Louvre A486.jpg|575–550 BC (Louvre) File:Greco-Egyptian - Aryballos - Walters 482863 - Three Quarter.jpg|Greco-Egyptian faience hedgehog, 6th century BC File:Janiform aryballos Louvre CA987.jpg|Janiform with ''kalos'' inscription, 520 BC File:1138 - Keramikos Museum, Athens - Plastic vase - Photo by Giovanni Dall'Orto, Nov 12 2009.jpg|Foot-shaped, c. 500 BC File:1120 - Keramikos Museum, Athens - Douris, Aryballos - Photo by Giovanni Dall'Orto, Nov 12 2009.jpg|Two ephebes wrestling, 490–480 BC〔From the workshop of the Douris Painter.
