Mythological Hittite Sirens are attached to three sides of this cauldron, their faces turned inward, and they have rings.
Siren, in Greek mythology:
The sirens, known as winged creatures in Greek mythology, are referenced by these attached figures. Sirens were dangerous female creatures with bird-like characteristics who enticed sailors with their enchanting and beautiful songs. In Homer's Odyssey, Odysseus and his sailors were cautioned about the deadly consequences of giving in to the music of the sirens. As a result, Odysseus had to be tied to the mast of his ship, while the sailors filled their ears with beeswax to avoid being lured by the sirens' captivating allure. The Homeric epics were originally passed down orally, but were eventually written down in the late 8th or early 7th century B.C. During this same time period, bronze cauldrons were created in various parts of the Mediterranean and featured attachments of mythical creatures like sirens. The significance of these intriguing, frightening, or protective symbols on the cauldrons—sirens looking inward towards the cauldron —are open to interpretation.
