Description
Summary:"This work presents metal lamps (bronze, lead, and iron) found in the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, covering a chronological period from the 4th century BC (Phoenician-Punic lamps) to the 6th century AD (Late Imperial and Byzantine periods). The typology of J. Bussière -- ceramic lamps from Algeria -- is followed for the Phoenician-Punic material; the conventional classifications of Roman lamps are those of S. Loeschcke (Vindobona/Windonissa), D. Iványi (Pannonia), and N. Valenza Mele (lamps from the National Archaeological Museum of Naples found in Pompeii and Herculaneum); the late antique material (early Christian and Byzantine) is included in the typological framework of M. Xanthopoulou. The repertoire of Roman Hispania forms a heterogeneous collection of high artistic quality, encompassing finds from various provinces: Baetica, Lusitania, and Tarragona. Most pieces lack an archaeological context, and some possess no known provenance"--
