Ancaint roman Glass Tear Collecting Bottel exhibiting very little variation**Time of Jesus: 1st Century AD** This artifact is a blown tubular ledge rim bottle with a cylindrical neck extending toward the bottom and a squat spherical body on a flat base. Popular throughout the Roman Empire, these bottles held perfumes and scented oils and were often placed in burial caves, earning the name "tear bottles" for collecting the tears of mourners. The tradition of collecting tears is referenced in the Bible by King David in Psalms
