"This booklet illustrates various types of pottery lamps made mainly in the Mediterranean world from the Minoan period until Early Christian times. Such lamps can be very attractive small objects and well repay attention. They are of interest to the social and art historian because of the representations of daily life, religion and mythology, and lost masterpieces of sculpture appearing on some Roman lamps. Lamps are useful, too, to the archeologist in that they are ephemeral and are easily recognizable : even small fragments can be placed within their types. These types can, on the whole, e dated comparatively closely, and so, in lamps, the excavator has a valuable dating tool. The distribution of lamps foreign to the area in which they are found is some indication of the pattern of trade in the ancient world, while the various uses to which lamps were put illustrate aspects of social and religious life...

The volume contains a short introduction, a classification by types, a critical catalogue, a register of the dated contexts, concordances and indexes, and an excursus by T. B. L. Webster on the theatrical figurines. Nearly half of the 1,100 items are illustrated with photographs. The subjects of the (mostly fragmentary) figurines are revealing. To the Greek deities of earlier times are added Oriental figures like Serapis, Isis, Harpokrates, Attis, as well as Egyptian priests and Asiatic dancers. The molded "plastic" lamps that are included in this volume were probably made in the same workshops as the figurines.
