Lanx
A ''lanx'' (Latin for dish) was a large ancient Roman serving platter.〔Lysons, Daniel & Lysons, Samuel. ("Antiquities: British and Roman" ), Magna Britannia vol 5, 1817, pp. CCIII-CCXVIII. Accessed November 26, 2007.〕 Particularly ornamented ones were used to make offerings or sacrifices.〔Dunlop, John Colin. (''History of Roman Literature from its Earliest Periods to the Augustan Age'' )' Eve Littel, New York: 1827, p233.〕 Indeed, the silver Corbridge Lanx,〔Discovered in 1735 the Corbridge Lanx was owned by the Duke of Northumberland, and purchased by the British Museumin 1993. (). Multiple images here ( eight ) and here ( twelve ).〕 the second discovered in Britain, has depicted on it a lanx itself, set beside various gods and goddesses - Minerva, Diana, Juno, Vesta and Apollo.〔Note divinities otherwise characterised as the Greek equivalents, see: Nicholson, Oliver. ("The Corbridge Lanx and the Emperor Julian" ), ''Britannia'', Vol. 26, 1995, p312〕 Positioned atop an altar the lanx is heaped with an offering "of a globular form." Fruit as well as sheep parts and "other small victims" were likely used. However, the exact meaning in this representation has not been determined.〔Hodgson cited in Bruce, John Collingwood. (''The Roman wall: a historical, topographical and descriptive account of the Barrier of the Lower Isthmus extending from the Tyne to the Solway.'' ), London: John Russell Smith, 1851: p335-7; plate p335.〕〔Nicholson,Oliver. ("The Corbridge Lanx and the Emperor Julian" ), ''Britannia'', Vol. 26, 1995, p312〕 The inscription on the now lost Risley Park Lanx, which was the first lanx discovered in Britain indicated that it was "church plate."〔Johns, Catherine & Painter, Kenneth. ("The Risley Park Lanx 'rediscovered'(abstract)" ), ''Minerva'' 2(6) 1991, 6–13.〕
