Roman Terracotta Amphora is an ancient jar with two handles and a narrow neck, used to hold oil or wine. Most were produced with a pointed base to allow them to be stored in an upright position by being partly embedded in sand or soft ground.
They are called ANSA
Traditionally not many colours were used on Amphora. I myself only study Ancient Greek Amphora, so i cant speak for other eras and types of Amphora. There were two main forms of decoration on Ancient Greek Amphora. Red Figure and Black Figure. The main two colours of both these styles were anthenian clay red and black. Sometimes paint was added onto the amphora after it has been fired, but these were never very bright. For information on how black/red figure was achieved you will have to look on wikipedia (because I'm not a potter). But bassicaly the main colours were red, black and sometimes white.
Yes, terracotta is hard. It is made of soft clay that has been baked until it is dry and hard. Commonly tiles and flower pots are made fo terracotta.
Terracotta is not a stone, it is clay. It is not hard until it has been fired in a kiln or oven. Also, although the clay is found in nature, the finished product called terracotta is not.
Terracotta is fireproof, it is actually intentionally fired. Because it is clay it is not dry or hard until it has been baked at a very high temperature. If it is burned it may be covered in soot, but the terracotta will survive.

I hope that you realize you have NOT written the plural of amphora here. Once you put an apostrophe, it makes it possessive. We're talking about something belonging to the amphora.The amphora's rim was chipped.We were amazed at the amphora's condition after years of burial.
Roman jugs, or amphora, as they were called were used for basically the same purposes that we used bottles today. They were used for carrying and storing liquids such as water, wine, oil and honey. However they came in various sizes from the serving jugs to the massive transport amphora. The larger ones could also be used for storing grain.

· amphora
There were very few small hand held, portable "bottles" at the time as they were determined not to be cost effective given the very little volume they would hold. Instead, an "Amphora" (Plural: amphorae) was used to transport fluids. An amphora was similar to the size of a modern day flower vase with handles on either side. Drinkable fluid from an amphora would be poured into a small "Kylix" which is the most direct equivalent to a small drinking cup.
