Roman-era Pottery and Glass


Byzantine, Roman, Canaanite and Judean amphorae, alabastrons, oil lamps, sculptures, and glass (Roman glass in upper right). A sarcaphogus and amphora in the bottom left and center. Footed pedestal bowls (used for religious and ceremonial services (mid-picture). Judean basaltic stone alter upper right of limestone sarcaphogus (alter from Iron Age I Period Circa X Century B.C.). Redware pottery from the Iron Age period artifacts (reddish) easily distinguished from artifacts of C.E. origins.

The majority of these artifacts were sold at auction. However, I have an amphora in excellent shape, similar to the one in the lower left corner (Price: $2,500.00); a set of five oil lamps with erotic and pornographic motifs ($1,500.00), a dozen or more oil lamps of various sizes and designs, several pieces of roman glass, including a glass beaker with stirring spoon (Price: $2,500.00); and one Judean footed pedestal bowl ($900.00).
