A pragmatic vessel of tanned hide stitched with sinew, lined internally with pitch or wax to prevent leaking and keep water fresh, and sealed with a horn or bone plug. The flexible leather allows the skin to fit snugly in a pack or hang from a belt, and the practiced hand can refill it quickly at any stream or well. An essential piece of traveling gear that has kept wanderers and soldiers alive through the ages.
