Abstract

This study aims to present a series of glass finds from recent archaeological excavations in several important settlements of Roman Dobroudja-Tropaeum Traiani / Adamclisi, Carsium / Hârșova, Altinum / Oltina and Ulmetum / Pantelimon. Most of these discoveries belong to the Early Byzantine era and fall into the typology of Isings 111 stemmed goblets, used mostly as candles for lighting in early churches. However, we can also mention some earlier vessels, among which we can count the fragment of a carinated bowl made of opaque-red glass paste or two fragments of ribbed bowls from Tropaeum Traiani, as well as other fragments of beakers and cups dating back to the 2nd-3rd centuries AD. Although they do not represent typological rarities, the glass discoveries presented in this study are able to complete the general panorama of Roman and Early Byzantine glass finds in the Pontic Danubian space.
