MARIS

MARIS (μάρις, μάρης, Hesych. μάριστον), a Greek measure of capacity, which, according to Pollux (10.184) and Aristotle (Hist. An. 8.9), contained 6 cotylae (or nearly 3 pints). Polyaenus (4.3.32） mentions a much larger measure of the same name containing 10 congii, or nearly 8 gallons. [COTYLA]
