This vessel belongs to a very distinctive group of attractive, tall-necked jugs that were probably made at Colonia Agrippina (modern Cologne) on the River Rhine in Germany. Examples have been found exclusively in the northwestern provinces of the Roman Empire. This jug is said to come from Samarobriva (modern Amiens, France).
