Abstract:This text examines the extensive trade and consumption of glass in Roman Britain, exploring how the glass industry expanded across the Roman Empire from 43 CE to 500 CE. The introduction of glassblowing technology transformed glass from a luxury item to a common household product. Through an analysis of Roman glass fragments from cities, rural settlements, industrial sites, and military bases, the study reveals patterns of glass distribution that reflect socio-economic and trade trends
