This paper presents the results of electron microprobe analysis of 124 samples of glass from sites in Libya, most from the Saharan oasis belt of the Wadi al-Ajal. Imported Roman vessel glass; beads; vitreous production waste; and Islamic glass bangles have all been analysed, and provide the first chemical information on glass from this region.

Funding

The research leading to these results has received funding from the European research Council under the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme (FP/2007-2013)/ERC grant agreement number 269418, PI David Mattingly.
