Roman, Syria Palaestina, Glass Jar with a Flaring Mouth and Double Rim, Late 3rd - 5th Century A.D.
|Glass| |Antiquities|, |Roman,| |Syria| |Palaestina,| |Glass| |Jar| |with| |a| |Flaring| |Mouth| |and| |Double| |Rim,| |Late| |3rd| |-| |5th| |Century| |A.D.|, The Palestinian glass industry flourished from the 4th to the early 5th century, following the rule of the Roman emperor Diocletian (284-305), when the region enjoyed a time of relative peace in spite of economic instability. When Constantine the Great finally emerged as sole ruler in 324, Palestine benefited from the fact that he targeted Jerusalem and the Holy Land as main recipients for his reconstruction program. Exempted from personal taxation by an Imperial edict in 337, a large number of skilled craftsmen profited greatly from the economic boom. This is a rather plain, but finely made jar - except for the unusual "double rim." The double rim was made by folding to create a flange immediately below the rim.

Malloy, former dealer in antiquities for 40 years; SOLD
