Roman Glass in Britain

Résumé du livre

This book looks at the products of the Roman glass industry found in Britain, describing the vessels used in the province during four chronological periods. Techniques of manufacture and decoration, trade with other provinces, and the evidence for British production are also explored. In addition there is a brief guide as to where the best examples of Roman glass can be seen in museums in Britain. About the author Denise Allen works with the collections of the Hampshire County Council Museum Service and lectures both locally and on archaeological and classical study tours around the Mediterranean.
