Roman patera is a saucepan believed to have been used by the Roman legions during battleground camps. It was an essential piece of equipment for the Roman army while they were on long marches during expeditions. The infantrymen carried such cooking essentials along with cutlery and other types of utensils of use. The Patera or other types of saucepans were also a part of households for cooking small portions of food for the family. This particular saucepan is believed to be used mainly for cooking soups. The original patera was found in the remains, but the base was missing, and the handle had some varying designs as per scholars. The bowl has a lip (a slight bent) along the rim to help pour liquids into cups.
* The engraved design on the handle is not exactly the same as the historical artifact, it is an inspiration from various patterns and shapes.

The Roman patera comes with a layer of lead-free tin on the inside to make it safe for cooking food. A layer of tin also protects the bowl from rusting.
