A Cnidian relief vessel from Micăsasa

  • Subiect: From the Roman site of Micăsasa originates a relief vessel, which was found in 1978 by Dr. I. Mitrofan, who then published this piece several times, but without any analysis or comments. The vessel (fig. 13 a-b) is a pelike made from two parts obtained within moulds, in a similar way like the lamps or terracotta figurines. This type of mould-made vessels decorated with relief, was produced by workshops of Cnidus and was found mostly in the eastern part of the Roman Empire (fig. l). The pelike from Micăsasa is decorated with a Satyr on one side and Pan on the opposite one. We have to observe that, with the exception of Cnidus, all these vessels are scattered across the Empire in a small number, so most probably they were not a matter of bulk trade, but more like personally brought, as a souvenir.
