PIESE DE ILUMINAT DIN BRONZ DE LA TIBISCUM
LIGHTING BRONZE ARTIFACTS FROM TIBISCUM

Summary/Abstract: This study describes three bronze artifacts used for lighting discovered at Tibiscum. The objects are a Roman lamp of the double volutes type, dating from the 3rd century A.D. (according to the stratigraphy analysis), a possible chandelier tripod in the shape of a lion, with a four fingers pad, and a candlestick shaped as a giant lizard. It is highly likely that the items have been imported. Yet we cannot exclude the possibility of their having been produced in local workshops.
