Typology

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I recognise that this page could do with a discussion of the typological analysis of Roman glasswares, although there is a seperate page dedicated to glass blowing, so a typology of blown object may belong there, and a typology of cast/slumped wares could be added here.

Composition

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I don't see the value of a large compositional table like the one in Anglo Saxon glass, and the literature argues against comparability of glass analyses at the moment, but are there other opinions? Ruth Fillery-Travis (talk) 14:47, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

no place for this, but ...

This article is so beautifully and thoughtfully illustrated that there's no useful place to put this, but I thought I'd point out this interesting depiction of a very large transparent glass bowl of fruit from Pompeii. Any Roman glass I've seen in person (not a vast amount) has been much smaller in scale, even if these grapes and pomegranates would've been nowhere near as large as specimens today.

No Latin word for glass?

Latest comment: 10 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

I'm surprised by the claim that there was no Latin word for glass in the 1st century AD. Doesn't vitrum count? --Florian Blaschke (talk) 22:55, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

OK, apparently the word is not attested in this sense before Cicero ... how curious. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 23:20, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
