Ancient Near East, early Byzantine Empire, ca. 5th to 8th century CE. An excellent cast-bronze bread stamp, of a rectangular form, with seven raised letters on its face and a loop handle on the verso. The well-aged appearance of this baking tool is brought forth by lustrous areas of pale-green, russet, and brown patina. Bread stamps were an important technological innovation in the Classical world, used to signify that bread came from an authentic bakery or that it was intended for a specific family. There was also bread made to be freely distributed, which was stamped.
