Glass from the Late Byzantine Remains near Shiqmona
(pp. 209–218)
Yael Gorin-Rosen
Keywords: glass production, workshops, window pane
The excavation at Shiqmona yielded 425 glass fragments of local types, known from almost all nearby sites, as well as production waste. The finds from this excavation are probably connected with the glass production activity encountered in many sites in the area of the Haifa bay and Mount Carmel, attesting to the prosperity of this craft in the area during the Late Roman and Byzantine periods.
