1. Patera

   In the material culture of classical antiquity, a phiale (Ancient Greek: φιάλη [pʰi.á.lɛː]) or patera (Latin pronunciation: [ˈpatɛra]) is a shallow ceramic or metal libation bowl. It often has a bulbous indentation (omphalos, "bellybutton") in the center underside to facilitate holding it, in which case it is sometimes called a mesomphalic phiale. It typically has no handles, and no feet. Although the two terms may be used interchangeably, particularly in the context of Etruscan culture, phiale is more common in reference to Greek forms, and patera in Roman settings, not to be confused with the Greek (Πατέρας) Patéras or Father.

1. Patera

   Patera is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the family Polygyridae. The name is from the Latin patera, meaning a saucer, and refers to the highly depressed, saucer-like shape of the shells of these snails. In addition to flattened shells, members of the group have an imperforate umbilicus, and a single tooth, on the parietal wall of the aperture. These snails are known only from the eastern United States.
