Abstract

The excavations at Ḥammat Gader yielded large quantities of glass fragments mainly dating to two periods: Late Roman/early Byzantine (fourth–early fifth centuries CE), and late Byzantine–Umayyad (seventh–mid-eighth centuries). A few fragments date to the early Abbasid period (second half of eight–early ninth century). The glass assemblage revealed the most common types: bowls, beakers, wineglasses, bottles, oil lamps and a windowpane. The similarities in form, fabrics and workmanship may point to a local glass production.
