[2] ἡ δὲ Πυθίη οἱ χρᾷ τάδε. “‘ἐπὶ μὲν τέσσερας Βᾶττους καὶ Ἀρκεσίλεως τέσσερας, ὀκτὼ ἀνδρῶν γενεάς, διδοῖ ὑμῖν Λοξίης βασιλεύειν Κυρήνης, [3] πλέον μέντοι τούτου οὐδὲ πειρᾶσθαι παραινέει. σὺ μέντοι ἥσυχος εἶναι κατελθὼν ἐς τὴν σεωυτοῦ. ἢν δὲ τὴν κάμινον εὕρῃς πλέην ἀμφορέων, μὴ ἐξοπτήσῃς τοὺς ἀμφορέας ἀλλ᾽ ἀπόπεμπε κατ᾽ οὖρον: εἰ δὲ ἐξοπτήσεις τὴν κάμινον,1μὴ ἐσέλθῃς ἐς τὴν ἀμφίρρυτον: εἰ δὲ μὴ ἀποθανέαι καὶ αὐτὸς καὶ ταῦρος ὁ καλλιστεύων.’” ταῦτα ἡ Πυθίη Ἀρκεσίλεῳ χρᾷ.

- "The amphora (pl. amphorae; from Greek amphi - on both sides, phero - carry) is a two-handled pot with a neck that is considerably narrower than the body. It was used for the storage of liquids and solids such as grain. Undecorated 'coarse' amphorae, with their lower part tapering to a point, were the standard transport containers in the Mediterranean. They are frequently depicted in symposium scenes. Panathenaic prize amphorae are perhaps the closest in shape, but the majority of painted amphorae are grouped into two main types, the one-piece belly-amphorae, and neck-amphorae, which have a clearly-marked neck. Also discussed here is the pelike, another two-handled storage vessel."

- "A two-handled vase with a narrow neck used for storage or transport. This vessel shape is common in both plain and decorated wares. Transport amphorae are large undecorated vessels, often with pointed bases. Attic decorated wares favor the amphora shape and many subdivisions of the type have been identified.
Term: The word is Greek, and is apparently the ancient name for this vessel."
