meaning of
κάδος
/ κάδιν as ‘pail’ for water in Byzantine sources see KOUKOULÈS 1948, 110. Even a neuter form κάδι (< κάδιον) is
recorded by the dictionaries.

and further functions of the κάδος in Greek and Latin literary sources, see BONATI 2013 s.v. 1[1].
[12] The topic of the reuse of storage containers is discussed in detail by

[13] Cf. e.g.
P.Hamb.
I 10,35 (II CE, Theadelphia)
κ[ά]δ̣ον
μέγαν̣ and P.Tebt. II 406,23 (ca. 226
CE) κάδος μικρός. But the κάδοι
mentioned by Philippid. fr. 28, 4 K.A. (ap. Athen. Epit. 781f) are bigger than a man (κάδοι μείζους ἐμοῦ), with comic exaggeration.
[14] Further details on the features of the κάδος in Greek and Latin written sources in BONATI 2013 s.v. 4.
[15] For this aspect see BONATI 2013 s.v.
4 with references. For example WHITE 1975, 128 states
that «it seems clear from the evidence that the term cadus, like its parent κάδος, was
used with an extremely wide range of meanings, both general and specific».
[16] The juxtaposition of κάδοι / κάδια with terms denoting ointment vessels (μυροθήκη, λήκυθος and ὑδρίσκιον) in some papyri containing lists of paraphernal goods (cf. P.Oxy. VII 1026,20-1 [V CE]; P.Strasb. IV 237r,16-7 [142 CE,
Ptolemais Euergetis]; SPP XX
46,17 [II-III CE, ?]; SPP IV pag.
115-6,10-2 [169-176 CE, Oxyrhynchus]) might suggest miniature jars for unguents and cosmetics also in these
cases. See BONATI 2013 s.v.
1[2] and 4. For an overview of the
main types of ointment vessels, cf. IŞIN 2002, 85-96.
