Enhance your decor with a Ancient Greek Pseudostomos Amphora with orange background .In Ancient Greece Anphora was the vase used for storing wine and olive. Pseudostomos named because its vertical neck is closed,and the outflow of fluid was made from a side view.
First side shows Phaethon.Phaethon was the son of the Oceanid Clymene and the solar deity Helios in Greek mythology. His name was also used by the Ancient Greece as an alternative name for the planet Jupiter,the motions and cycles of which were personified in poetry and myth.Phaethon, challenged by Epaphus and his playmates, sought assurance from his mother that his father was the sun god Helios. She gave him the requested assurance and told him to turn to his father for confirmation. He asked his father for some proof that would demonstrate his relationship with the sun. When the god promised to grant him whatever he wanted, he insisted on being allowed to drive the sun chariot for a day.According to some accounts Helios tried to dissuade Phaethon, telling him that even Zeus was not strong enough to steer these horses, but reluctantly kept his promise. Placed in charge of the chariot, Phaethon was unable to control the horses. In some versions, the Earth first froze when the horses climbed too high, but when the chariot then scorched the Earth by swinging too near, Zeus decided to prevent disaster by striking it down with a thunderbolt.Phaethon fell to earth and was killed in the process.

Second side: It is shows Goddess Athena. Athena is the godess of Wisdom and Skill.
