Late Bronze Age Glass Production at Qantir-Piramesses, Egypt (Rehren & Pusch 2005, Science 308)2005 •
It has been uncertain whether the glass produced during the Late Bronze Age (LBA) originated in Egypt or Mesopotamia. Here we present evidence for the production of glass from its raw materials in the eastern Nile Delta during the LBA. Glass was made in workshops that were separate from where the production of objects took place. The initial melting of the raw materials to semifinished glass was done at temperatures of 900- to 950-C, followed by coloration and ingot production at 1000- to 1100-C.

Glass finds from Beit Ras (ancient Capitolias) in JordanThis paper discusses glass finds from the Polish excavations at Beit Ras, ancient Capitolias. During two seasons (2015–2016) of fieldwork a relatively large amount of glass fragments was unearthed in the two main excavated areas. The material is from contexts dated to the late Roman through early Islamic periods, spanning a time from the 4th to roughly the 8th century AD. The assemblage includes mainly tableware like bowls, plates, drinking vessels, and also a significant amount of raw-glass chunks. Apart from glass material coming from the excavated squares, a selection of items from the survey in 2014 completes the corpora of glass coming from the ancient settlement.

Primary Evidence for Glassmaking in Late Bronze Age Alalakh / Tell Atchana (Amuq Valley, Turkey)2022 •
This article presents evidence of primary glass production from the Late Bronze Age (LBA) levels of the site of Alalakh / Tell Atchana. Situated at the northern extremity of the Levant, the site is already known in the literature as one that has produced rich and diverse glass artifacts. Investigations using scanning electron microscopy, synchrotron contrast, and diffraction tomography of a crucible fragment found in a multi-craft workshop context have confirmed that glassmaking occurred. This new and unique analytical evidence contributes the first data from a Syro-Levantine area to the discussions of early glassmaking centers. Prior studies on the origin of glass have given significant credit to Mesopotamia as the center of innovation, particularly because of the textual records and examples of early glass objects from the region. The current study also addresses the relationships and potential mismatches between textual and archaeological evidence. The discovery in Alalakh of a glassmaking crucible provides, for the first time, evidence for LBA glassmaking outside of Egypt and the core area of Mesopotamia, and it can be linked to descriptions of glassmaking in cuneiform tablets. We open a fresh avenue for scrutinizing and combining archaeological, textual, and scientific evidence for centers of innovation.

Between 2005 and 2013, four seasons of excavations by The University of Sydney in Area XXXII at Pella in the north Jordan Valley ( Figure 10.1 ) have uncovered a secondary glass workshop of the late sixth or early seventh century ce. Although it has been identifi ed as such by the presence of glass- working debris in conjunction with clear indicators of hot- working activities, the kilns themselves were made using construction techniques not previously recorded for ancient glass- working. This raises questions about what criteria might be used to identify secondary glass kilns in the Levant. Although further research on the associated artefacts is ongoing, it is nonetheless useful to provide a preliminary report on the physical remains within this four- roomed workshop.

This paper presents direct archaeological evidence for the primary production of glass at the LBA site of Tell el-Amarna, in the form of numerous finds of semi-finished glass. The diagnostic microstructural and chemical composition of these finds is presented alongside macroscopically similar finds, of shapeless lumps of finished white glass. The semi-finished glass was found to contain numerous inclusions of residual quartz and newly formed lime-rich crystal phases, but no added colorant.
