| Summary: | We analyze a lamp reflector with chrismon recently found at Carthago Spartaria (Cartagena). In this work, an iconographic and functional analysis of this unpublished piece is approached. The chrismon is frequently shown on ARSW bowls or lamps produced between the 4th and the 5th centuries. However, the Tunisian lamp reflectors are very scarce. They are linked to the typological evolution of Early Christian bronze prototypes, in which the reflectors allowed a play of light and shadow with the motif stamped on them. The low impact on the Mediterranean basin allows us to derive data on very little use and perhaps linked to the liturgy of Christian communities. Se presenta un asa plástica de lucerna con crismón recientemente hallada en Carthago Spartaria (Cartagena). En este trabajo, se aborda un análisis iconográfico y funcional de esta pieza inédita. El crismón se utiliza frecuentemente en los cuencos o lucernas realizadas en African Red Slip Ware (ARSW) entre los siglos IV y V. Sin embargo, las lucernas tunecinas con reflector son muy escasas. Están ligadas a prototipos paleocristianos en bronce, en los que el reflector permitía un juego de luces y sombras con el motivo en él troquelado. El escaso impacto que tuvieron en la cuenca mediterránea nos permite inferir datos de un uso muy reducido y quizás vinculado a la liturgia de las comunidades cristianas. |
