This article is a preliminary review of the glass finds from the Agora of Iasos and a Byzantine building of the
urban perimeter. The finds include common productions such as lamps, beakers, cups, bottles, windowglasses, beside some rare decorated fragments. These objects can be compared to the rest of Late Antique
glass of Asia Minor.
Key Words: Iasos, Caria, lamps, beakers, bowls, mold-blown glasses.
Spätantike Gläser aus Iasos (Karien)
Das Projekt der Bearbeitung der Gläser aus Iasos in Karien, das während der italienischen Mission im Jahre
2008 angeregt wurde, hat zum Ziel, die Verbreitung, den Handel und die Produktion von Glasfunden, die in
der Stadt gemacht wurden, zu untersuchen, zunächst statt vorderhand in kleinerem Rahmen, später jedoch als
Teil eines grösseren Projektes, das den antiken östlichen Mittelmeerraum umfasst. Die Siedlung wurde bis
zum Ende der byzantinischen Periode bewohnt, wie religiöse Gebäude und die Funde darlegen. Im
vorliegenden Beitrag sollen die Glasfunde aus den Grabungen in verschiedenen Sektoren der Agora (vor
allem im Caesareum und in der frühchristlichen Basilika) und aus der Basilika beim Osttor vorgestellt werden.
Es sind dies vor allem Tafelgeschirr, Lampen und Fenstergläser, die in zahlreichen Kontexten zusammen mit
Keramik gefunden wurden, die eine genauere Datierung der Funde liefern kann. Es wird eine Typologie der
Funde, die während der Spätantike in Gebrauch waren erstellt, unter besonderer Berücksichtigung von Form
und Funktion.
Schlüsselwörter: Iasos, Karien, Lampen, Becher, Schüsseln, formgeblasenes Glas.
I vetri tardo-antichi di Iasos di Caria
Il progetto di studio dei vetri di Iasos di Caria, iniziato durante la Missione archeologica del 2008, ha lo scopo
di delineare le attestazioni, i commerci e le produzioni di materiale vitreo documentate nella città, finora
oggetto solo di studi preliminari, all’interno di un più vasto ambito di ricerca sugli scambi nel Mediterraneo
orientale antico. Il sito presenta una frequentazione di vita fino al periodo bizantino, come documentato dagli
edifici religiosi e dai materiali rinvenuti. Il contributo si propone di presentare i reperti rinvenuti negli scavi
provenienti da differenti settori dell’agorà (in particolare il cd. Caesareum e la basilica paleocristiana) e dalla
basilica presso la porta est. Oggetto di questo studio sono soprattutto il vasellame da mensa, le lucerne, i vetri
da finestra associati in numerosi contesti con materiale ceramico utile per una datazione più puntuale dei
reperti. Verranno presentate le tipologie attestate durante la fase di vita tardoantica della città, con particolare
riferimento allo sviluppo formale e funzionale.
Parole chiave: Iasos di Caria, lucerne, bicchieri, coppe, vetro soffiato entro stampo.
Since 1960 the Italian Archeological Mission carries out researches in Iasos in Caria,
currently under the direction of Dr Fede BERTI. During these years many archaeological
excavations within the urban area, reconstructions, restorations of the city buildings and
the museum dressing of Balık Pazarı have been realized (fig. 1).

Late Antique Glass in Anatolia
The study of glass finds from Iasos has begun in 2008, within a wider research concerning
different materials, in order to outline the situation of commercial trading in the Eastern
Mediterranean of which the Carian center was part of1.
Finds presented in this paper originate from various meaningful areas of the urban centre
that yield important finds in order to define a preliminary view: some sectors in the Agora,
that show frequent activity up to the Byzantine period (for example the Justinian Basilica2,
excavation areas of the porticos and the building in the south-eastern corner3) and an
excavation area located in the eastern part of the peninsula, where the settlement lies. Here
a Byzantine building - the use of which is not clear (the so-called Basilica near to the East
Gate) - was identified above an older complex belonging to Late Hellenistic time4. The
contexts examined have different determinations (religious, civil, etc.), while this work does
not take into account glass from burials. The finds are very fragmentary; most of them
present some type of weathering, iridescence or slight corrosion.
The objects represent a typological sampling of glass materials from Iasos, ranging from
Late Roman to Byzantine period, awaiting a complete and chronological study of finds
coming from the archeological excavations. The glass fragments which have been identified
here, are dated on the base of comparisons with sites similar to Iasos. A particular attention
to Asia Minor findings has been payed, without neglecting some important sites in the
Mediterranean region. Sometimes the absence of whole vessels enables only a hypothetical
attribution to a fixed shape, on the base of a general evaluation of the context. Currently it
is not possible to make associations between different finds that allow a more precise
outlining of chronologies, development and use.
Late Antique glass from Iasos includes lamps, goblets, beakers, bowls, bottles, flasks. It
shows natural colours (from colourless to light or olive green, light blue, etc. in many
variations). Finds from other sites in Asia Minor, such as Amorium, Ephesus, Hierapolis,
Nicaea, Sardis, Sagalassus, Istanbul5, provide a lot of parallels, testify common production
and underline the predominancy of vessels of daily use in Iasos (mostly between the 5th to
8th century A.D.), beside some particularly esteemed examples6.
A possible local manufacture is not certain and can at this moment not be supported by
clear archaeological evidences such as production waste, glass drops and melting-pot
fragments. During the late-antique period the Iasos Agora and buildings facing it (especially
the Bouleuterion) were occupied by many little furnaces; one of them can possibly be
assigned to glassmaking7. A shapeless emerald green glass lump from the Basilica in the
Agora could be set aside for local rimelting by itinerant workers.
I would like to thank Dr F. BERTI for allowing me to begin the study of glass from Iasos, giving me the
possibility and the permission to publish them. All drawings except no. 1 is by the author and in scale 1/1.

materials settings will be studied.

E. LAFLI (ed.)
Lighting devices8 are documented in several variants featuring a big diffusion, a common
use as well as the presence in religious buildings9. Different types of lamps, sometimes
represented with just one specimen or in variants which less differs to each other, indicate a
repetitive and coarse production, with an utilitarian aim. Objects can show a globular body
with a knob base10 (fig. 2); lamps with full11 or hollow stem12, a rounded or flat and slightly
thick end13 (fig. 3). This type was inserted in polycandela or in metal rings fixed below the rim
and hung off by thin chains14. Bowl-shaped lamps, suspended by a triple support15, have
rounded rims with handles going from the edge of the rim to the body16 (fig. 4). The body
contains the oil. Some types have a conical or carinated body with handles fixed on it17.
Stemmed goblets, also known as wine-glasses form Isings 11118, are well-documented. This
kind of vessels is one of the most widespread in the Mediterranean during late-antique
time; the vessels can be used for drinking or lighting19. The vessels have several variants of
stemmed feet: with round20, flattened21, segmented22 or twisted knobs, hollow or full
smooth stems23; the end of the foot may be more or less marked, tubular, flat and thinned24
(fig. 5-9). The lack of complete vessels does not allow to make associations with different
kinds of rims and to reconstruct complete shapes25.
A lot of modeled cut rims can be related to lamps and beakers with various shapes26:
tronco-conical with straight flaring (form Is. 10627) vertical28 or globular29 walls (fig. 10-13).

25 At the moment it is impossible to define the relative sequence of the evolution of the shape.
26 Certain attribution to lamps can only be made with pointed bases that do not allow the vessel to stand.
Typology of rims come in the second place, because some cut rims are also documented for beakers.

E. LAFLI (ed.)
Late Antique Glass in Anatolia
Some fragments, assigned to bowls or beakers, show blue applied blobs (one bigger blob or
three small ones brought closer, in a triangular pattern) (fig. 14-15). This form finds
particular comparison in the 4th century A.D. not only in Western countries, but also in
Asia Minor30. A similar form has a beaker with cut rim and straight walls which are partially
mould-blown, decorated with vertical flutes below the rim and with an honeycomb pattern
on the body31 (fig. 16). Another fragment, made in thicker glass, has the same pattern and
the curved walls allow to refer it to a bowl (fig. 17). These vessels are a Syrian production
of the 4th–5th century A.D. and are imported also into eastern centers32. The same
chronological horizon could be given to a beaker fragment, mould-blown too, because it
has the same shape and fluting decoration. However, the last one shows a pattern with
lozenges alternatively framing dots and concentric circles with two appendixes (fig. 18).
Some bases, not precisely referable to any form, have a rather late chronology such as an
applied multiple thread33 (fig. 19) or peduncles34 feet, pushed up bases35, and one flat base
with spiral ribs, part of a hemispherical bowl36 (fig. 20).
Very flaring37 or funnel38 rims (fig. 21-22), sometimes with applied spiral thread, are
referable to bottles and flasks; they are documented from the 3rd – 4th century A.D. to the
7th. As it is impossible to define the shape of the body (ovoid or globular) and the foot, a
precise typological attribution, according to Clasina ISINGS, cannot be made.
Many window-glass sherds come from the excavations of the so-called Basilica near the
East Gate: they show a natural colour changing from light green to light blue, made by the
cylinder technique. Their straight edges, although slightly waving, show them as
quadrangular panes; their thickness ranges from 0,3 to 0,7 cm. It is important to underline
the lack of glass mosaic tesserae39.
In conclusion, it can be stressed again that this paper is a preliminary report. Better
explanations will be given in an exhaustive and systematic analysis of the whole settings.
