Exceptional Glass Vessels from Rural Bilad a-Sham

Eleven complete glass vessels were unearthed in two of the subterranean complexes at Horbat Susya, in the rural southern Judaean Hills. The vessels comprise a unique, homogeneous group, sharing shapes and mold-blown decorations. This article investigates their features, dating and origin, and their presence at a rural settlement in medieval times. The observations attained may promote a fresh view on populations and their material culture in remote rural settlements in other parts of the country and in other times.
