介绍（中）	半透明的蓝绿色。边缘折叠，圆形，向内; 高圆柱形颈部，略向下扩展，基部周围有水平工具凹痕; 不均匀的倾斜肩部; 扁豆状身体，模塑成鱼形，末端以嘴巴为略尖的底部。背鳍沿一缘，右侧有 11个尖刺，右侧有19个较小且不太明显的尖刺; 另一边缘有小突起，可能也表明鱼腹下有小鳍; 两侧有四部分鳍，身体鳞片与平脸之间有三个新月形鳃; 杏仁形眼睛，有浮雕瞳孔; 嘴有棱角分明的脊和突出的嘴唇; 身体上呈月牙形和节状鳞片，排成一排。颈部断裂修复，部分轮辋缺失，身体左侧多处裂缝;针刺气泡;外部有一些凹陷、暗淡和微弱的彩虹色;厚厚的土壤结壳和内部的彩虹色风化。已知只有少量鱼形的罗马模具吹制瓶，但由于多种原因，它们构成了一个有趣的群体。到目前为止，已经记录了13个例子。发现范围从塞浦路斯和小亚细亚西部到黑海沿岸的莫西亚和犹太，而其他例子则在西方甚至波斯湾被发现。生产中心很可能位于地中海东部的一个沿海地区（叙罗-巴勒斯坦沿海地区，或者可能是小亚细亚西部），船只可以很容易地通过海上贸易分散。
介绍（英）	Translucent blue green. Rim folded out, round, and in; tall cylindrical neck, expanding slightly downward, with horizontal tooled indent around base; uneven sloping shoulder; lentoid body, molded in the shape of a fish, ending with its mouth as a slightly pointed bottom. Dorsal fin along one edge, showing eleven spikes on proper left side and nineteen smaller and less distinct spikes on right side; small protrusion on other edge, perhaps also indicating a small fin under belly of fish; four-part fins at sides, with three crescent-shaped gills between scales on body and plain face; almond-shaped eyes with relief pupils; mouth with angular ridges and prominent lips; crescent-shaped and knob-like scales arranged in rows on body . Broken and repaired on neck , with part of rim missing, numerous cracks on proper left side of body; pinprick bubbles; some pitting, dulling, and faint iridescence on exterior; thick soil encrustation and iridescent weathering on interior. Only a small number of Roman mold-blown bottles in the shape of a fish are known, but they constitute an interesting group for a number of reasons. So far thirteen examples have been recorded. Finds range from Cyprus and western Asia Minor to the Black Sea coast of Moesia and Judaea, while other examples have been found in the West and even in the Persian Gulf. It is likely that the center for production was located in one of the coastal regions of the eastern Mediterranean (the Syro-Palestinian littoral or, possibly, western Asia Minor), whence the vessels could have been easily dispersed by means of maritime trade.
