Glass aryballoi from Jader

Berislav Štefanac ; Muzej antičkog stakla, Zadar, Hrvatska

Sažetak

The subject of this paper is glass containers, which in the Early Imperial period represented an important toiletry item. Aryballoi were containers for storing various cosmetic preparations for personal grooming. In Zadar, 21 specimens have been recorded, which were all unearthed in 1st- and 2nd-century tomb groups at the Iadertinian necropolis. On the basis of their morphological significance and chronological context, the aryballoi have been divided into 5 groups. A more detailed study has demonstrated that most of the specimens from the 1st century and the first half of the 2nd century were artefacts from eastern Mediterranean workshops. An exception is the aryballos with a ribbed decoration, which bears the characteristics of a western workshop circle from the second half of the 1st century. The diversity and luxury of the specimens in this segment of delicate material artefacts also make antique Zadar one of the most significant sites for such finds in the Mediterranean.
