Roman glass[edit]

On 21 February, 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Roman glass, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Err…Hello and Roman glass[edit]

Hi. I hope somebody has told you what a good article that was. Way above our usual standard. Just what we need, and I do hope you have the time and the interest to carry on making contributions. Cheers! (From someone without any particular interest in glass or in ancient Rome—though I do faintly recall some interestng artefacts in the Freud Museum.)

Having just come across it, it is obviously very strong indeed on the technical side, but pretty light on the art history side. An excellent basis for continued expansion there anyway. I recently did (from next to zero prior knowledge) Ancient Roman pottery, which you may find an interesting comparison. It is getting a steady 1500 odd views a month; this would probably increase if more links to it were added (search on "Roman glass a" or something and go through them linking). All the best.
