A pelike () is a one-piece ceramic container similar to an amphora. It has two open handles that are vertical on their lateral aspects and even at the side with the edge of the belly, a narrow neck, a flanged mouth, and a sagging, almost spherical belly. Unlike the often-pointed bottom of many amphorae, the pelike's bottom is always flanged so it will stand on its own. Pelikes are often intricately painted, usually depicting a scene involving people. The shape first appeared at the end of the 6th century BCE and continued to the 4th century BCE. ==External links== *(Red-Figure Pelike by the Darius Painter ) *(Neck-pelike with aulodic contest ) *(British Museum: Red-figure pelike, attributed to the Marsyas Painter ) *(Shapes of Greek pottery ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pelike」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
