trophies
In ancient Rome winners were awarded by money rather than medals or trophies. Since the middle Ages, chalices were given to winners of sporting events. These chalices were given in the period as early as 1600. It is a small two-handled sterling cup in the Henry Ford Museum.
Trophies can also come in the shape of a two-handled cup, bowl, or even mug and also as replicas of people and animals, and sometimes they are an architecture of words, pictures, or numbers. Trophies have been traditionally made with metal figures, wood columns, and wood bases, and in recent years they are manufactured with plastic figures and marble bases found in variants of colors and shapes.
