About the Item

Kernos (plural kernoi), a very peculiar form of compound vessel or, simply put, «a plurality of bowls,» that was utilized for ceremonial purposes from as early as the Neolithic period. It may have been part of the rites and offerings to goddesses like Demeter, Kore, and Attis; but there are those who believe it was nothing more than table dishes. The two crema maya vessels, and the two bronze sculptures that form Kernos para Antonio are no less ambiguous: it may or may not be or have been a censer, a ceremonial cup, a container of domestic use, a vase for a family heirloom, or none of the above.
