An Unguentarium with a Possible Glass Stopper from Palmyra, Syria

Miriam Romagnolo

Abstrak

The aim of this note is to present a fragmentary unguentarium, brought to light during the 2010 excavation of the PAL.M.A.I.S. archaeological project in Palmyra, Syria. Only the upper part of the vessel is preserved and stands out because it likely has part of its stopper, made of glass, still stuck in its mouth. It is possible to formulate different hypotheses on how this stopper was used and produced. The specimen from Palmyra is a unicum for this region and chronological horizon (sixth to seventh century CE).
