Circa 4th to 6th century AD (1500-1700 years old), 2 Roman terracotta oil lamps. The bowl of the one on the left appears decorated with an animal, the other is also decorated, however I was unable to decipher the image. These were found on a dig or excavation, and have been part of a collection of antiquities from around the world. NOTE: the date offered is my opinion only, based on 40+ years of global travelling/collecting/dealing in antiques and antiquities. Please bid accordingly, and based on your own knowledge. 
History: Terracotta oil lamps were used across Ancient Rome, the Holy Land, the Greek empire, the Byzantium world. The earliest lamps were undecorated and served a singular practical function. Circa 300 AD, as tastes developed and skills of craftsmanship advanced, they provided another medium for artistic expression. Scenes from Roman and Greek mythology and Christian Byzantine symbols all featured as popular decoration on these ancient pottery lamps.
