Dolia
.
⚫Dolia were large vases or vessels used in ancient Roman times for storage or transportation of goods.
⚫It was a very large jug or container made of fired clay.
⚫Oval in shape, with a wide mouth and rim, it had no neck or handles and, in many cases, could measure up to six feet in height.
⚫Some dolia have a rounded body tapering into a flat bottom, while more frequently, dolia maintained a rounded bottom.
⚫They were lined with pitch or wax in order to contain or process liquids and solid foods.
Dolia were also used in a thermopolium (plural thermopolia), a place where it was possible to purchase ready-to-eat food.
⚫Thermopolia being the forerunners of today’s restaurant, the items served are sometimes compared to modern fast food.
