ROMAN GLASS AMPHORISKOS Ca. 200 AD
A glass amphoriskos, an exemplar of artistic finesse, exhibits a captivating inverted piriform contour, with a distinctive button base, a stately tubular neck, and an alluring flaring rim. Two gracefully fashioned handles unite the rim to the shoulders, imbuing the vessel with a sense of balance and harmony. Its surface is adorned with a mesmerizing iridescence, casting an ethereal play of colors that elevates its visual appeal to unparalleled heights. The alluring encrustations that embellish the amphoriskos further contribute to its allure. These encrustations, carefully developed over time, bear witness to the vessel's age and storied past. Amphoriskos, a diminutive version of the classic amphora, served as a versatile container in antiquity. Its primary function involved storing precious oils, perfumes, or other valuable liquids, making it an indispensable accoutrement in ancient households and ceremonial settings. The vessel's elegant design and captivating adornments not only manifested the ancient artisans' unparalleled skill but also reflected the esteemed status of its contents.

So a few months ago I came across this very odd 'bird-man' vase, which the Met site said 'almost certainly relates to Aristophanes’ well-known comedy The Birds (first produced in 415/414 B.C.) and may represent the costume that would have been worn by members of the chorus in the fifth century B.C.'
Then today I saw this figure on the museum-digital.de site which is identified as an 'actor in bird costume' wearing a feathered costume and flapping his arms like wings. He's not wearing a mask, but they still identify it as a possible costume for the choir in Aristophanes' play. Quite a different costume if so! This hides the hands where the other one shows arms with wings like a cape over them, and this one shows his face where the other one seems to depict a mask. It is of course also possible neither of these objects depict actors at all! That play is hardly the only reason to create strange half-bird figures.
I wonder what the costumes really looked like (and how much variation there was between different stagings).
