Slovenia, Korinjski hrib, late antiquity, glass, archaeometric analysesAbstract
Samples of glass vessels and window glass from late antique fortification Korinjski hrib near Veliki Korinj, Slovenia, were analysed. The glass assemblage from this 6th c. site shows a typical, but limited set of vessels, which mainly com- prises beakers, goblets and window panes. The results of archaeometry analyses showed unexpected Mediterranean glass compositions, indicating that the site may have fitted into the Byzantine trade or army supply network.
