Eagle-shaped Pottery Tripod

Neolithic, Yangshao Culture (c. 5,000-3,000 BCE)

Its body is smooth and without decoration. It is supported by three fulcrums - the thick legs and tail feathers. The form emphasizes the eagle’s inherent physical and spiritual characteristics and achieves a harmonious unity with the shape of the pottery tripod.

Unearthed in 1958 in Taiping Village, Hua County, Shaanxi Province,

It stands approximately 35.8 cm high with a mouth diameter of 23.3 cm.

Day IV - Tripod. The Twelve Labors of Heracles is, of course, a classic that everyone knows. But who knows about the case of Heracles stealing the tripod of the Pythia, offended because she refused to give him a prediction on how to atone for his sin? And then Apollo went to hand-to-hand combat with him to take the tripod back? Yeah, that happened.
