AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
ビザンチンの陶器製容器で、先端の尖った底を持つ中空の球形胴体を特徴とする。上部は短い首に立ち上がり、厚い縁をもつ小さな口へ細く広がる。肩の周囲には短い垂直の切り込み帯で装飾されている。この種の品は“グリシャの炎”として知られる爆発性液体を満たし、手榴弾として使用されていただろう。表面には土壌成分の付着が見られる。時間の経過に伴う擦り傷、穿孔痕、胴体の欠け・打痕といった使用痕が認められる。表面にはへこみ、欠け、擦り傷がある。
ギリシャの炎（液体の炎とも呼ばれる）は、ビザンチン帝国の武器庫で最も有名な兵器であり、長きにわたりアラブの攻撃からビザンツ帝国を救った。防衛と攻撃の双方で用いられ、ビザンツ帝国の存続に大きく寄与した。可燃性混合物の配合は長い間厳しく秘匿され、帝国崩壊後には取り返しのつかない形で喪われた。その正確な成分は今日まで不明のままだが、研究はいくつかの要素として石油の使用を示唆している。平均的なサイズと握りから、短距離戦闘で手投げされたと推測されるが、長距離戦闘や海上での使用を否定するものではなく、カタパルトで投擲された可能性が高い。
Measurements: (circa) H 13.5cm x W 7.5cm
Provenance: Ex private UK collection, acquired 1990s.
