Product Description

A very nice Byzantine ceramic "Greek Fire" hand grenade, circa 800-1000 AD. A hollow ceramic vessel with a piriform body, short neck, and a rounded rim with small hole. Stamped concentric circles and deeply-engraved grooves overall, which allowed the grenade to easily break apart on impact, spreading or splattering the flammable material inside. Size: L: 4”, W: 2.875”.
