Description |
English: A "bulla" is a hollow pendant, that could hold perfume or a charm. Found inside this one was "labdanum", a substance used in perfume. Depicted are the mythical craftsman Daedalus and his son, Icarus (on the back). To escape captivity, Daedalus fabricated wings for himself and his son, but Icarus flew too close to the sun, and when the heat melted the wax that held his wings together, he fell to his death.
Nederlands: Een Etrukische/Romeinse “bulla” is een aan een halsketting gedragen holle hanger die parfum of een bezwering kon bevatten. In deze bulla is labdanum, een parfumcomponent, gevonden. Op de voorzijde is de mythische Daedalus afgebeeld en aan de achterzijde zijn zoon Icarus. Om uit gevangenschap te ontsnappen maakte Daedalus vleugels voor hem en zijn zoon. Icarus vloog echter zo dicht bij de hete zon dat de bijenwas waarmee de vleugels bijeen werden gehouden smolt en de ongelukkige Icarus op de aarde viel. |
