Old Glass and How to Collect it
Literature
5.0
THE origin of glass is lost in antiquity. Pliny, indeed, ascribes its discovery to certain Ph?nician mariners who, being shipwrecked upon a sandy shore, used a block of the natron which formed their cargo to support a pot which they were putting over an improvised fire. The heat fused the sand with the natron, and lo! the glass was discovered in the ashes.
