Ancient Roman glass juglet with handle in greenish glass. This was purchased years ago at a British sale house, and it came with this old tag/label (most likely pre-WWII) as it refers to Masada in Palestine. Label reads "Roman glass, Palestine 2nd C AD 150 GBP NT" and on verso "Masada 1296"Masada:Masada is a dramatically located site of great natural beauty overlooking the Dead Sea, a rugged natural fortress on which the Judaean king Herod the Great constructed a sumptuous palace complex in classical Roman style. After Judaea became a province of the Roman Empire, it was the refuge of the last survivors of the Jewish revolt, who chose death rather than slavery when the Roman besiegers broke through their defences. As such it has an emblematic value for the Jewish people. It is also an archaeological site of great significance. The remains of Herod's palaces are outstanding and very intact examples of this type of architecture, whilst the untouched siegeworks are the finest and most complete anywhere in the Roman world.
