The first thousand years of glass-making in the ancient Near East compositional analyses of late Bronze and Iron Age glasses.

This volume explores glass composition and production from the mid-second to mid-first millennia BC, the first thousand years of glass-making. Multi-element analyses of 132 glasses from Pella in Jordan, and Nuzi and Nimrud in Iraq (ancient Mesopotamia) produce new and important data that provide ins...

Adapted from Tatton-Brown and Andrews 1991: 2 -- Chapter 2 -- Figure 2-1 Scanning electron micrograph of Pella sample 188, a turquoise opaque bead. Dark grey areas are weathered glass which form along microscopic cracks in the glass. White grains are the opacifying compound calcium antimonate. The scale bar represe

Streaks of less well opacified glass due to incomplete mixing or formation of the opacifier can be seen. Sample size is ~ 2.5 mm across.

520 |a This volume explores glass composition and production from the mid-second to mid-first millennia BC, the first thousand years of glass-making. Multi-element analyses of 132 glasses from Pella in Jordan, and Nuzi and Nimrud in Iraq (ancient Mesopotamia) produce new and important data that provide insights into the earliest glass production.
