piggin

Tanımlar (İngilizce)

1. isim A small pail, can, or ladle with the handle on the side; a lading-can. In the colonial era, some buckets were made like a small barrel, but with one stave left extra long. This stave would be carved into a handle so the bucket could be used as an oversized scoop for scattering grain, slopping the hogs, etc.

   “At length a little negro girl appeared, walking straight as an arrow, with a piggin full of water on her head.”
