Hi All:
I have posted a photo of an odd jug my father acquired years back. I have heard several stories of what it is, but I know virtually nothing about it, except that it is old. Does anyone out there know anything about this?.
Two stories I have heard: One is that it is an Earth Jug. Farmers would take them in the field as a canteen. I do not believe this, as it is way too ornate and fragile. Another I heard is that it is a ceremonial wedding jug. Probably neither is accurate.
