<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sulla80, post: 4940086, member: 99456&quot;]It’s a good question - as The Egypt museum describes “symbolically carried water from the Nile” perhaps even solid green Basalt can qualify as a jar - but not knowing more about how it was described by the contemporary Egyptians - I defer to the others more expert.&nbsp; For me “canopic” and&nbsp; “jar” are functionally useful as the description helps to find and recognize the shape and articles written about it.&nbsp; Interested if there are any more correct descriptions - I’ve also seen “vase” used, but not sure that is very literally applicable either.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
