Mourners have used small glass bottles to catch their tears and place them in tombs, or given them to family members as a sign of respect. Soldiers going off to war would leave hand picked bottles with their loved ones to determine their love and devotion. --- There is further info on the ancient Egyptians, Victorian and civil war tear bottles.
