Popularizing note

Olive lamps are among the most common antique exhibits in Polish museums. They often form part of old collections and are not dated. One of the four antique lamps in the collection of the National Museum in Lublin does not have an established origin. It has probably been in the museum collection since before World War II, similarly to nine missing lamps preserved only in the form of museum cards with an annotation about their origin from the "Bobolanum" (currently the Military Hospital on Racławickie Avenue in Lublin).The Roman granulated lamp belongs to the so-called Warzenlampe type. It is made of light clay covered with slipware. The vessel is oval with an elongated, rounded burner, the disk is wide, slightly depressed, surrounded by relief, on the disk there are traces of a vice, high foot.The lamp is one of the unusual miniatures that had cult significance or were used as toys. It is modelled on bronze Italian lamps. It can be dated to the 3rd century AD. It probably comes from a Pannonian workshop. Pannonia was a Roman province located between the Sava and the Danube. Other imports made of clay, such as terra sigillata vessels found in the Polish territory come from this area.
