Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present a series of finds from Tomis (Constanţa County, Romania) indicating the existence of secondary glass production in this city during the Roman period, most probably covering a chronological framework between the 2nd and 4th centuries CE. Using as a starting point the yet unpublished find of the remains of a secondary glass kiln on Ecaterina Varga Street, the article reviews all the similar instances known so far from Tomis, both published and unpublished. This situation is discussed in connection to another category of archaeological finds susceptible of bringing new information on the glass production in Tomis, several vessels belonging to Bucovală type XXV with undetached moils, feature which could serve as an argument in favour of their local production.
