In the Hellenic religion, nephalia (Ancient Greek: νηφάλια, nifália, 'calm'; Greek pronunciation: [/neː.pʰá.li.a/ → /nɛːˈɸalia/ → /niˈfalia/]) was the religious name for libations, in which wine was not offered or the use of wine was explicitly forbidden. Liquids, such as water, milk, honey or oil in any combination, were used with a mixture of honey and water or milk (μελίκρατον, melíkraton), being one of the most common nēphália offerings. Nephalia were performed as both independent rituals and in conjunction with other sacrifices, such as animal sacrifices. The use of nēphália is documented in the works of Aeschylus and Porphyry.
