Abstract

Summary This article presents an archaeological and analytical study of glass fragments recovered in the archaeological excavations from 2003 until 2006 in the site of El Saucedo (Talavera la Nueva Toledo). A group of selected glasses from the early imperial, late imperial and Visigoth epochs, including tableware, personal adornments and building material, has been analyzed using MEB-EDX and gas chromatography in order to complete the typological and functional studies. The former technique has been used for the determination of the elemental composition and the second one for the identification of the contents into an ointment from the early imperial epoch.
