Description: | GlassManufacturing waste. A fragment of melted glass or cullet. All edges are rounded by melting, so it will have been subjected to temperatures in excess of 600 degrees centigrade. This makes it impossible to determine whether this was originally window or vessel glass. This object complements other evidence for high temperature processes in the area. The glass is not iridescent but bears a slight whitish surface deposit formed after it was melted, which suggests it may either be of Roman or recent date. Suggested date: Roman, 40-400. Weight: 2.78gms.
