A receptacle was a spherical device which could house the disembodied consciousness of a corporeal lifeform.

In 2268, the entities Sargon, Thalassa, and Henoch were in a subterranean cave on Arret, stored in receptacles, three of a group of survivors of a cataclysmic war. The other entities had long since fled their receptacles. (TOS: "Return to Tomorrow")
