CHYT'RA (χύτρα). A common kind of earthenware pot in use amongst the Greeks, employed for boiling and cooking, or any ordinary purpose; and, therefore, left in its natural rough state of red clay, without any sort of decoration or painting. (Aristoph. Pac. 923. Athen. ix. 73. Cato, R. R. 157. 11., where, however, some editions read scutra.) The illustration (Chytra/1.1), from an original, represents the form of these pots according to Panofka, Recherches sur les véritables Noms des Vases Grecs, i. 28.
