Ancient Near East, the Levant, Early Bronze Age II, Canaanite, ca. 3300 to 2700 BCE. An elegant redware wine jug of sizable scale with a voluminous body that swells at the shoulder and a conical flared rim. Sitting upon a narrow base, the ancient jar features a graceful, arched handle with a petite peak that rises just above the rim and connects to the rounded shoulder. Spouted vessels like this example were likely used to pour ritual libations during religious and social ceremonies, perhaps during burial rites as many have been found in or near burial sites. These red slipped and burnished jugs and juglets from the Early Bronze Age II period are known to archaeologists as Abydos Ware, named after the famous site in Egypt where they were first identified in mortuary contexts. The name is a misnomer, however: Abydos Ware juglets like this one were not made in Egypt but rather in the ancient Levant.
