This contest is fueled by the following news:
In the ancient times, some jugs apparently had no other practical purpose, but making up only room decorations, and also such jugs, which, during its suitability in household utility, were manufactured mainly for offering to Gods and people as gifts or for distribution as rewards in gymnastic and other competitions (such as, for example, Panathenaea jugs). Placing of jugs in tombs was conditioned by two aims: from one side, the relatives of decedents wished to decorate his last shelter as best as possible and from the other side – to create an ambiance with items, which were useful and pleasing for him while alive, apparently, with such faith, that they may serve him even in the after-death life. Early painted jugs, which attracted the attention of scientists of the XVII century, were found in the Tuscany and later on , they were considered as Tyrrhenian creations (Etruria); but, currently, calling them as Tyrrhenian creations is completely stopped, and everyone with any amount of knowledge in archeology, does not doubt that, majority of them are Greek creations, and only some, which are different with respect to shape (Canopy jug), color of clay (black clay – drill plough), nature & painting content and other features – mainly Tyrrhenian items. Almost all the cities of Greece and its colonies were into manufacturing of jugs but main manufacturing center was Attic and in particular, Athens and Corinth. From here, through trade, they spread across to coasts of Mediterranean Sea and Black sea and penetrated into the continent, whereas Greek masters, banking on sales of their products to barbarians, at times, made jugs according to the tastes of barbarians, which is proved by the findings, made in various parts away from Greece.
