TY - GEN N1 - ill. ; 29 cm N2 - The discovery of relics initially interpreted as a glasswork from the 11th century that occurred in Kruszwica in 1953 was followed by increased interest in glassware found at excavations in Poland. Even though the later laboratory analyses from 1964 revealed that the discovered furnace was not directly connected with glassmaking, studies on production of glass became more frequent. They were conducted on two levels: 1. by institutions related to glass industry, 2. by archaeologists and historians in cooperation with chemists, physicians and technologists. The large amount of source material that consisted of glass-related finds obtained during the millennial excavations as well as establishing a research team comprised of representatives of different disciplines allowed for interdisciplinary studies on glassware and relics of glassmaking. They led to addressing theoretical foundations and methods of research on this category of finds. Numerous studies, including books and papers, were also published and a new scientific discipline, history of glass, was born in Poland.
