MALLUV'IA and MALLUVIUM (χειρόνιπτρον). A wash-hand basin (quasi manu-luvia, Festus, s. v.). The illustration (Malluvia/1.1) represents a basin upon its stand, with the towel beside it, altogether very similar to a piece of modern furniture, from the celebrated Roman fresco painting in the Vatican, which goes by the name of the Aldobrandini marriage.
