'Things that travelled', a collaboration between the UCL Early Glass Technology Research Network, the Association for the History of Glass and the British Museum, aims to build on this knowledge. Covering all aspects of glass production, technology, distribution and trade in Roman, Byzantine and Early Medieval/Early Islamic times, including studies from Britain, Egypt, Cyprus, Italy and many others, the volume combines the strengths of the sciences and cultural studies to offer a new approach to research on ancient glass. By bringing together such a varied mix of contributors, specialising in a range of geographical areas and chronological time frames, this volume also offers a valuable contribution to broader discussions on glass within political, economic, cultural and historical arenas. 606 $aGlass manufacture$zMediterranean Region$xHistory 606 $aGlass trade$zMediterranean Region$xHistory 615 0$aGlass manufacture$xHistory. 615 0$aGlass trade$xHistory. 676 $a666.1 702 $aRosenow$b Daniela 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910682515503321 996 $aThings that travelled$93084411 997 $aUNINA
