The Blue-Green Glass Baby Feeder (1st–3rd century AD) from the Eastern Mediterranean is a small glass container used to feed babies. It is usually made of light blue-green glass and has a round body with a narrow neck and a long spout that helped control the flow of liquid. The feeder was likely used to give infants milk, water, or other liquids. It was made using early glass-blowing techniques that became common during the Roman period. Today, these vessels help historians understand everyday family life and childcare in the ancient Mediterranean world.
