Description

This book examines the extensive trade and consumption of glass in Roman Britain, exploring how the glass industry expanded across the Roman Empire from 43 CE to 500 CE. The introduction of glassblowing technology transformed glass from a luxury item to a common household product. Through an analysis of Roman glass fragments from cities, rural settlements, industrial sites, and military bases, the study reveals patterns of glass distribution that reflect socio-economic and trade trends. The findings show that major cities, military fortresses and economically significant settlements possessed a diverse range of glass types, indicating their importance as trading hubs, while rural and industrial sites displayed varying glass compositions influenced by their proximity to urban centres. This research sheds new light on the dynamics of trade routes and material culture in Roman Britain, offering valuable insights into the economy and social structures of the period.
