AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

ビザンチン様式の陶製容器で、中空の球形本体がほぼ円筒状に先細りし、底は丸い。上部へと立ち上がる短く細い首と厚い縁を持つ小さな口がある。容器の肩部は、三角形状に配置された一連のくり抜き円のグループで囲まれている。下部には円の三連が周り、底部には大きなくり抜き円が飾られている。このような品は「ギリシャの炎」として知られる爆発性液体で満たされ、手榴弾として使用された。表面には土状の付着物と凹み、欠けが見られる。肩部と本体には大きな欠けがあり、表面にはひび割れがある。リムには欠けもある。

ギリシャの炎、別名リキッドファイアは、ビザンチン軍備の中で最も有名な武器であり、長い年月にわたりアラブの攻撃からビザンツ帝国を救ってきた。防御と攻撃の双方で用いられ、帝国の生存にとって重要な役割を果たした。燃えやすい混合物の配合は長く厳重に管理され、帝国崩壊後には取り返しのつかないほど失われた。従ってその正確な成分は今日まで不詳であるが、研究は石油を重要な成分として示唆している。平均的なサイズと握り具合から、近距離の衝突で手投げされたと推測されるが、長距離戦や海戦での手榴弾として使用されなかったとは言えない。おそらくは投石機で投げられた可能性が高い。

寸法:幅7 cm x 高さ11 cm

来歴:元英国私蔵コレクション、1990年代取得。
