Some Information about Glassmaking in Roman Siscia
It is a well-known fact that, when it comes to the Pannonian area, Siscia was one of the most developed and flourishing Roman colonies. As a colony, it had all Roman urban elements for a city of such importance. The fact that mint was located in Siscia was certainly most significant, and that was a rare privilege which indicates the city’s importance. It should therefore not be surprising that Siscia might have had a developed glassmaking activity, signifying that the economy of Roman Siscia was highly developed. Furnace that was possibly used for melting was found while digging the foundation for a residential building at 38 Ante Starčevića Street in 1998, which could be evidence for such activity. During the excavation a furnace area filled with small ceramic fragments and molten glass was discovered. A calotte was not found. On the other hand, numerous glass fragments were found at various sites in Siscia in situ: glass bottles, plates, one lacrimarium, balsamaria, etc. Although we plan to study the research results from 1950, the main focus will be on the research conducted since 2000s, and, based on this, we will bring some new findings related to the manufacture of glass in Roman Siscia.
