Baqa el-Gharbiya Area: The Glass Vessels from Nahal Hadera (North)
(pp. 143–152)
Natalya Katsnelson
Keywords: burial offerings, mold blown, local production, polygonal juglet
The glass vessels retrieved from a burial cave (L124) at the site of Nahal Hadera (North) were found mostly intact; all of them are blown. The similarities in shape, pattern and slightly careless manufacture suggest they were locally produced. The vessels belong to two burial phases, dating from the late first–second centuries CE and the late third–fourth centuries CE, providing new data concerning glass burial offerings in the coastal plain during the Roman period.
