Plural of chytron, a type of ancient Greek cooking pot or vessel with a rounded body and wide mouth, used in household cooking.
From ancient Greek 'chytra', a cooking vessel. The word appears in classical texts describing daily Greek life and domestic activities.
Archaeological digs in Greece have found thousands of broken chytra fragments—they're so common that ancient broken pottery literally became the ancient Greek version of broken dishes you'd throw away today.
