Black-Figured Amphora
(475-500 B.C.)
This attractive amphora (Greek vase) is commonly known as "vomitrius", in a subtle reference to
the ceremonial vomitorium march impressively depicted around its midsection.
Undoubtedly the most common small to mid-sized regurgitation receptacle of its day, this piece
owed much of its popularity to its easy-to-grasp handles and seemingly bottomless capacity. When
using this piece, I feel especially close to all my ancient uvula-tickling brethren.
