Pithoi

Aren't pithoi wine-jars rather than "casks", which are products of the cooper not the potter? --Wetman 07:09, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

That was from the EB11 article. They seem to have "corrected" the EB9 one using someone with worse Greek. Just to note it somewhere, their version of the day's names are: "The Opening of the Casks", "The Feast of Beakers", and "The Feast of Pots". — LlywelynII 15:05, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
