Islands such as Rhodes or Samos, and the Greek cities along Asia Minor's coast, produced terracottas from early times. Many terracotta figures were crafted in the archaic period to resemble bottles - containers for perfumed oil. Produced in Rhodes, Samos, or Miletus, these terracottas were exported throughout the Mediterranean, reaching Italy in the west and the Black Sea shores in the north. The most ambitious Hellenistic terracotta figures were created at Myrina, a small city with no political influence between Smyrna and Pergamon. Some reflect contemporary trends in large-scale sculpture, while others bear the names of their makers on the back. Terracottas from Hellenistic Cyprus blend local and cosmopolitan influences characteristic of the island during this time. This object is part of "Scan The World".
