We want to bring together publications dedicated to glass from Graeco-Roman Antiquity (VIIth century BC-VIIth century AD) and to give a brief commentary on them. Confronted by the large number and variety of publications devoted to glass, we would like on the one hand to focus on the development of these studies and provide initial leads for further study, and on the other to offer an opportunity to glass specialists of the different regions of the Ancient World, who do not always enjoy easy access to these publications.
The database was conceived by the research team Archéologie du Monde grec et systèmes d’information (Anne-Marie Guimier-Sorbets, Virginie Fromageot-Laniepce) with the software FilemakerPro. The search is done in full text and is also helped by an electronic indexation in French and in English.
