About This Design

Classical Thanksgiving Mug

Classical Thanksgiving Mug

Get to know Thanksgiving in two classical languages on this colourful mug. It depicts a turkey, a harvest, and a pilgrim and includes labels in Latin and Ancient Greek. Notes: 1) At no extra charge, you receive both the standard word for "harvest" in Latin as well as a poetic equivalent. 2) The words for "pilgrim" would have slightly different connotations in pre-Christian antiquity, but are the correct terms. 3) Since turkeys are indigenous to the Americas, I have compromised a bit here. For the Latin, I use the scientific classification, which means "guineafowl rooster peacock" and offers a clever solution in Latin for describing a previously unknown bird. I think the Romans would have "gotten" it. For the Greek, I have used an older spelling (with double lambda) of the Modern Greek word, which connects it more clearly to its source in the Latin "rooster," but have included an alternate disused equivalent, i.e., "India rooster," which uses the ancient stem for India but transfers it to the peoples of the Americas and affixes it to the Ancient Greek word for "rooster." Again, I think an Athenian would have understood that a domesticated bird was the subject.

Creator Review
I like to buy and review my own work to ensure you get an outstanding product and I’m happy to give the Primary Colours Beach Football Mug 5 stars because it meets my expectations completely. Pleased with it I am. Zazzle mugs are well fabricated, microwave and dishwasher safe. And this yellow red and blue panoramic wraparound motif is sealed with a durable and sparkling Orca polished gloss glaze finish. It’ll never rub off! The size and energy of two jostling figures and a burly goal keeper fit the mug's circular shape well. There's momentum in the carousel effect as the two jostling figures repeat and move right around the mug and meet a burly goal keeper. Big sharp original images precisely drawn and delicately captured in blue and red with plenty of bright yellow! An ideal gift for anyone who plays ball! A fun gift for all beachball and football fans. A pair with the Retro Grey-Grain Beachball Player Mug. Available in two sizes and several styles including Black Ringer, Travelling, and Stern. Go have a peek!
