Studio archeometrico di vetri romani dal Museo archeologico di Adria (RO).

The Archaeological Museum of Adria has a very rich collection of glass findings, spanning a large period of time (from about the 6th century BC to the 4th century AD) and including a large variety of glass types, related to particular historical periods and produced with different techniques. Furthermore, the site of Adria is particularly important in the glass history for its peculiar geographical position: located in the North Adriatic area it has acted as a link between the Eastern Mediterranean and continental Europe. For these reasons, an archaeological and archaeometric study was performed on 70 samples coming from the Museum of Adria, in order to expand the knowledge about the glass production and trade in the Mediterranean during Roman time.
