These rare collectible Hellenistic period antiquities have been discovered on archaeological excavations in the Holy Land.

Zak’s antiquities also specializes in Biblical artifacts going back to the Canaanite period through to the Roman period with many items from the time of Jesus.

Scholars and historians are divided as to what event signals the end of the Hellenistic era. The Hellenistic period may be seen to end either with the final conquest of the Greek heartlands by Rome in 146 B.C following the Achean War, with the final defeat of the Ptolemaic Kingdom at the Battle of Actium in 31 BC, or even the move by Roman emperor Constantine the Great of the capital of the Roman Empire to Constantinople in 330 A.D.

Hasmonean oil lamp (165-63 B.C.)

This is a pinched style oil lamp that was produced after oil lamps had already developed a closed nozzle (used first in the Hellenistic period). This style looks very similar to Iron Age (from the period of the Israelite monarchy) oil lamps, and the Hasmoneans chose to bring back this style as a way of restoring the Davidic monarchy.
