A container is created to hold liquids for pouring and drinking; it also serves to store solids for subsequent pouring (e.g., sugar, flour, grains). These containers can be made from clay, wood, stone, glass, metal, china, styrofoam, plastic, or various other materials, often including stems, handles, and embellishments. Containers are widely used to quench thirst across diverse cultures and social classes; they also vary by style for different liquids or situations. Various types of containers are suited for different substances (e.g., teacups and measuring cups), settings (e.g., at water stations or in ceremonies), or decorative purposes. Containers have been an improvement on holding liquids with cupped hands or feet since recorded history; their presence has been found at numerous archaeological sites worldwide. Early containers were often crafted from shells and hollowed stones. In ancient Mesopotamia, various types of containers were created for several uses, possibly including the transportation and consumption of intoxicating beverages. Archaeological evidence suggests that the Roman Empire may have dispersed the use of containers across Europe; notable examples include silver cups found in Wales and a glass cup that changed colors discovered in ancient Thrace. In England, several thousand years' worth of containers have been discovered, such as the Rillaton Gold Cup, dating back to around 3,700 years ago. Containers were employed in the Americas prior to European settlers' arrival. Native American communities in the area surrounding the Gulf of Mexico used horse conch shells for drinking and other purposes. Given their importance in dining throughout time, containers have become integral to human culture; the shape or image of a container is reflected in various forms of cultural expression.
