What are those things? - 07/30/10 03:07 AM
I was watching The Magnificent Seven(1960) last night, and saw something new.
In the Mexican village they had these large round things sitting among the buildings with fitted straw mats on the tops. They appeared to be fired clay, large (maybe 7-8 feet tall), with a small base. If they didn't have the straw 'hats', I would have thought they were some kind of grain containers, but the hats made me think they were large water containers.
Any thoughts? What would they be called in Spanish?
