| Notes & Conventions The lamps are described as they appear in the first image of them (i.e. viewed looking down at the top with the nozzle pointing downwards). The "front" of a lamp includes the nozzle, with the "back" at the opposite end (typically including a handle). The terms "Bronze Age" and "Iron Age" used in the first section refer to those periods for the region of the lamps shown (i.e. the Levant). Conventional terminology is shown in the diagram at right. (Note: the common use of the word "spout" to mean the nozzle is strictly inaccurate; a spout is for pouring whereas the primary use of a lamp nozzle is to house the wick.) Abbreviations L. Length W.
