Why was this ewer made and how was it used?
This ewer was made for the transportation of liquids. Ewers from this time period were used to transport wine for drinking and water for bathing. These objects were common utensils that were often used daily for varying needs. See the image of "Ewer in Chicken Shape" for comparison. This ewer would have been used for the same purpose of Ewer in the form of a Parrot.
