A stamnos (plural stamnoi; adjective stamnoid) is a type of Greek pottery used to store liquids.
[1] Stamnoi had a foot, wide mouths,[2] lids and handles on their shoulders.
The earliest known examples come from archaic Laconia and Etruria, and they began to be manufactured in Athens around 530 BC.
