Spanish term or phrase: Lebrillo
"Los lebrillos, por sus características morfológicas, tipométricas y contextuales, son vasos cerámicos cuyas funciones pueden ser múltiples y variadas. De este modo, hemos creído conveniente ordenar la gran variedad de ejemplares documentados hasta ahora para los siglos IV-III a.C. en el Castillo de Doña Blanca y el poblado de Las Cumbres, o como se ha denominado recientemente: la bodega completa más antigua de Occidente, y ponerlos en relación con la elaboración y el consumo del vino".
