According to the myth
Civetta H13 decorazione penna pavone blu Teste running branchAmong ceramics depicting animals, the owl certainly holds a special place in Sicilian tradition. It is believed that the custom of creating owl shaped jars stems from a legacy of the Magna Graecia period, when the animal was considered sacred to the goddess of wisdom, Athena (hence the bird's Latin name, Athene Noctua). The owl, with its sharp gaze, penetrates the darkness, personifying the light emerging from the darkness and indicating revelation.
