Description |
English: Libation cup, deep relief, with pine trees fashioned from a rhinoceros horn. Rhinoceros horn was thought by the Taoists to have magical properties as well as being widely accepted, even today, as an aphrodisiac. By the T'ang dynasty (618-906 AD), horn libation cups were given to scholars who were successful in the Civil Service examinations. (gallery card) |
