Excavations At Sidi Khrebish Benghazi (Berenice) Volume III, Part 2

Abstract

Over 5650 lamps, largely ceramic, were discovered during excavation of the Hellenistic city of Berenice, North Africa. These date from the foundation of the city in the mid 3rd century through to the 10th- and 11th-century Islamic period. This full report catalogues Hellenistic, Roman and Islamic lamps, both imported and local, and also considers inscriptions, marks and historical context.
