介绍（中）	埃及罗马时期的许多艺术品代表了罗马埃及富裕的城市商人和富裕的农业阶层的品味。奢侈品的广泛交易是显而易见的，希腊罗马风格占主导地位由于埃及法老在公元前七世纪首次授权希腊贸易殖民地并雇佣希腊雇佣军。，希腊在埃及有相当多的存在。随着亚历山大的征服，马其顿希腊托勒密作为法老的继承人统治，托勒密的希腊和东地中海士兵在埃及部分地区大量定居。尽管托勒密国王保持着传统的埃及宗教和政治形式，但希腊和埃及混血的精英社会在许多方面都渴望希腊文化。随着孟菲斯和亚历山大的托勒密法老被罗马的罗马皇帝取代，希腊文化和艺术的地位有所提高。然而，多种文化影响并没有发挥作用，他们的和解也有所不同，这取决于赞助人的身份以及个人、公共、宗教或葬礼目的是否受到质疑这个小提手的瓶子有一个塞子，用链条连接在一个环上，环连接在两个提手上，以免丢失。另一条链条连接在一个较大的环的末端。最有可能的是，瓶子里装着香水油或软膏，在参观公共浴室时使用；这条链子可能是用来把瓶子系在腰带或手腕上的。公共浴池在托勒密时期被引入埃及，并在罗马人时期继续作为一种流行的社会习俗。
介绍（英）	Many artworks of the Roman Period in Egypt represent the taste of wealthy urban merchant and rich farming classes of Roman Egypt. Wide trade of luxury works is evident, and Greco-Roman style dominates. Since Egyptian pharaohs had first authorized Greek trading colonies and employed Greek mercenaries in the seventh century BC., there was a considerable Greek presence in Egypt. With Alexander's conquest, Macedonian Greek Ptolemies ruled as successors to the pharaohs, and Ptolemaic Greek and eastern Mediterranean soldiery was heavily settled in parts of Egypt. Although the Ptolemaic kings maintained traditional Egyptian religious and political forms, elite society, of mixed Greek and Egyptian descent, aspired to Greek culture in many respects. With the replacement of a Ptolemaic pharaoh in Memphis and Alexandria by a Roman emperor in Rome, the status of Greek culture and art, if anything, increased. However, multiple cultural influences were t play, and their reconciliation differed, depending on the identity of the patron and on whether personal, public, religious, or funerary purposes were in question. This small handled bottle has a stopper attached by a chain to a ring that is attached to both handle so as not to be lost. Another chain is attached to the ring ends in a larger ring. Most likely the bottle held perfumed oil or unguent to be used when visiting the public baths; the chain might have served to attach the bottle to a belt or the wrist. Public baths were introduced to Egypt under the Ptolemies and continued as a popular social practice under the Romans.
