An unguentarium (pl. unguentaria) is a small container, typically made of clay or glass, for oil and perfumes. They are mostly associated with Hellenistic and Roman contexts, especially as grave goods. The so-called fusiform shape (from the Latin fusus, meaning “spindle”) is characteristic of Hellenistic unguentaria and is thought to have developed functionally from the lekythos. On the other hand, the so-called piriform shape (from the Latin pirus, meaning “pear”) is characteristic of the Roman era, especially the early Principate.
