Summary/Abstract: During excavations in the central part of the Kom el-Dikka site (Area F) quite a large collection of glass has been unearthed. Most of it came from a thick accumulation of urban debris and ashes from nearby baths, attributed to the 4th–6th centuries AD . Some were also found in layers related to the occupation of the Early Roman house located there.
