Aristophanes,
Acharnians 459 (web address 1). Adler prints
kuli/keion ('cuppish thing') although some mss. offer the preferable
kuli/kion ('little cup'); the original, however, reads
kotuli/skion ('little beaker'). See also

Athenaeus,
Deipnosophists 1.2A [1.3 Kaibel] for "cup-tending discussions" (

Aelian.)
