A wineskin is an ancient container made of animal skin, usually from goats or sheep, used to store or transport wine.
History
Its first mentions with wine comes from Ancient Greece, where, in the parties called Bacchanalia, dedicated to the god Bacchus by the vintage of this drink, was offered the sacrifice of the goat, with which it would be made the wineskin that would conserve the wine.[1]
New Wine into Old Wineskins is a parable of Jesus. It is found at Matthew 9:14–17, Mark 2:18–22 and Luke 5:33–39..[2]
