This brief article will be displayed in Academia beginning from January 1, 2026, as it can be filed on freely accessible online archives no earlier than one year after the release of its journal. Please e-mail me for obtaining this brief article before 2026: [email protected] A glass paste phalera seems so far to have largely escaped scholarly attention, being illusrated only in 1990 and given a brief mention in 2017. It is circular with smooth edges which depicts a bust probably of Claudius with his three children. This glass phalera stands out among the numerous militaria in Turkey, which so far has not found adequate treatment. Typologically, it fits without difficulty into a series produced in the year AD 43 or shortly after that date. Keywords: phalera, glass, Claudius, first century AD, Turkey, Roman glyptics, Roman archaeology.
