Modern-day Syria, Israel, Palestine and Jordan were backwaters of the early Roman empire, but as the seat of Roman power began to shift east in the second and third centuries A.D. this region began to take on greater importance. The near east in particular became the primary source of cheap and mass-produced pottery and glass for the empire. This small glass jug is one of countless pieces of glass produced in Syria to be sent throughout the expanse of the Roman empire.
AGE: Ca. 2nd century A.D. CONDITION: Entirely intact with no repair or restoration. DIMENSIONS: About 3.5" tall |
