Anotations

Scope note:

Tables or other platforms in temples and churches upon which offerings to divinities are set. Not specific to geographic location, religious culture, or historical period: there are Ptolemaic, Shinto Buddhist, Vaishnav, Christian and Jewish offering tables. Examples are the blocks of sculpted stone or wood, intended to be placed in front of the false doors or statues of Egyptian tombs. These held food, drink, or other offerings to the dead and deities. For similar objects used specifically for liquid offerings, use 'libation tables.'
