Composition of 147 vessel glass
samples from a cemetery of late 1st — late 4th / early
5th centuries, completely excavated on the outskirts of Sevastopol, has been studied with LA-ICP-MS
technique. This data allows evaluating glass recycling practices in the
workshops producing vessels for regional population. The data on vessel
forms, their spread in the cemetery and the chemical composition of glass
could yield the circumstantial evidence on the local glass working (most
probably, in Chersonessos), time of its emergence
and peculiarities. Glass vessels
become widespread here from the 2nd century, and serial types,
made of the “mixed” Sb-Mn glass occur at the same
period. It could be related to the
emergence of local glass working, based on the raw glass imported from |
