Description: Pythagorean Cup, Greedy cup, engravedGoddess Artemis depicted on side (goddess of the hunt, wilderness, wild animals, nature, vegetation, childbirth, care of children and chastity)Stoneware. A Pythagorean cup is a practical joke device in a form of a drinking cup, credited to Pythagoras of Samos. When it is filled beyond a certain point, a siphoning effect causes the cup to drain its entire contents through the base. The cup can be used to learn about greed. WikipediaIntroduced by Pythagoras in the 6th century BC - its mechanical concept is still seen in washing machines today.I tested the theory and it works!There is a line inside - fill below the line and nothing happens.Fill above the line and the liquis releases through a bottom hole.Great condition!
