The epichysis is a type of vessel that was invented by Apulian ceramists in the 4th century BC. A special feature of these objects is the low body from whose centre rises a narrow and high neck. The narrow beak spout is well suited for pouring small doses of liquids, which is probably why the epichyses served as vessels for expensive liquids such as oils or perfumes.
