====== Cresset ======

A cresset is a metal cup or basket, often mounted to or suspended from a pole, containing oil, pitch, a rope steeped in rosin or something flammable. They are burned as a light or beacon.

Cressets mounted on the walls of Renaissance palaces in Italy were the first form of street lighting. ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cresset|source]])
