Tomb 7, of the double-
arcosolia
type, excavated at Fardisya, yielded one-hundred glass vessels and glass jewelry. All the vessels were free blown, except for one that was mold-blown. Most of the vessels represent well-known types, probably produced in the region during the Late Roman period (late third–first half of fourth centuries CE). Among the finds is a rare bottle of light green glass with three legs.
