Book Description:

This volume brings together contributions by key researchers of first-millennium glass from the Eastern Mediterranean and Europe. Taking an integrative approach combining scientific, archaeological, and cultural studies, the contributors illuminate changes in production and distribution and contend that variations in trade patterns reflected larger political, social, and economic developments in the Roman, Byzantine, and Early Medieval/Early Islamic eras.
