Abstract

A typical group of Crusader glass vessels was found in the “Ganor Compound” in Yafo, as well as a single bottle from the late tenth and early eleventh centuries CE. The Crusader glass mainly includes beakers and bottles of common types. Remains of glass production were also found: small chunks of raw glass, a small glass drop and remains of bricks, walls or floors of the furnaces; these could belong to either primary or secondary production stages. It seems that most of the vessels were locally made.
