I'm a bit confused - I thought a flagon was a more general term for a vessel that holds liquid, usually with a handle and a lid, and also means the amount of liquid held in such a vessel. The OED has the earliest usage in english print at ca 1470-1485. I certainly don't disagree with any extra information and crosslinking, but I think the primary definition should be the most general. Comments? If I get around to it I'll add information to the entry in a bit. Jed 17:19, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
