Gaza Jar
text:
The Gaza Jar, Type 2, possibly identical to the Ashkelon Jar (askalônion), was a storage vessel used from the Roman period to the end of the Byzantine period and the beginning of the early Muslim period in the Holy Land. Gaza was a regional trading hub at this time. The jar was made on a potter's wheel and is believed to have been used to store vinum Gazetum, Latin for Gaza wine, a sweet wine greatly prized in Roman times which reached peak production in the early 6th century.
