| Summary: | This third preliminary report on the excavations conducted in the Eastern bath by the French archaeological mission in Libya from 1994 to 2012 is dedicated to the material, in glass and in selenite stone. This documentation, considering most of the unearthed material, supplies a rare opportunity to study Roman glasses found in Tripolitania out of funeral context.They consist of tableware, lamps, game and jewelry objects and window glasses, that show the coexistence of glass and stone windows in the same building. The 3rd century glassware survey reveals rare and new forms used in the bath building. The late Antiquity material, accumulated after the building abandon, allows to note the part of Egyptian imports and that of Africa Proconsularis productions. |
