The Cesnola Collection of Cypriot Art: Terracotta Oil Lamps
The fourth catalogue in a series that documents the renowned Cesnola Collection of Cypriot Art, this book focuses on the collection’s 453 terracotta oil lamps dating from the Classical, Hellenistic, Roman, and Early Byzantine periods. The rich iconography on many of these common, everyday objects provides a rare look into daily life on Cyprus in antiquity and highlights the island’s participation in Roman artistic and cultural production. Each lamp is illustrated, and the accompanying text addresses typology, decoration, and makers’ marks on each of these objects that provide new insights into art, craft, and trade in the ancient Mediterranean.
Una manifattura vetraria del V secolo a Roma

I frammenti vitrei rinvenuti nello scavo, databili al V sec. d.C., costituiscono l’oggetto del presente lavoro e concorrono a chiarire alcuni dubbi sulla produzione di vetri in epoca tardoantica/altomedievale e le relative tipologie.

Each chapter offers a critical overview of a major field within the archaeology of the Roman Empire.
