The lamp belongs to the Eastern variant of Loeschcke VIII type. Most of these lamps were made in Ephesus, where several wasters of Loeschcke type VIII lamps have been excavated. Comparative neutron activation analyses of clays have proved the manufacture of Ephesus lamps at Sardis as well as at Ephesus, and we may conjecture the existence of other production centres, for example, Pergamon, where an excavated kiln has yielded a mould and a lamp of Late Asia Minor type.
