This article aims to present some inscribed small finds from former excavations carried out in the years 2006-2011 at Elaiussa Sebaste in Cilicia, under the auspices of the University of Rome, Sapienza. An inscribed base of a glass bottle, a lead seal, two glass weights, a bronze ring and an inscribed potsherd will be analyzed, so as to give new significance to these items that were until now neglected. All the objects pertain to the Late Roman or Early Byzantine period, mainly from the sixth until the mid-seventh century AD. Even if related to various different typologies, these inscribed finds have some common characteristics and shed light on several aspects of public and private life in a port city of southern Anatolia.
