Holy Chalice
In Christian mythology the Holy Chalice is the vessel which Jesus used at the Last Supper to serve the wine. It is not specifically mentioned in any account in the canonic New Testament nor in any early non-canonical literature. In the development of their legends, the Holy Chalice has often been identified with the Holy Grail, which is said to be the cup used to catch Jesus' dripping blood on the Cross.
