description <p>The rescue archaeological excavations which yielded the glass items discussed here were conducted in the summer of 2008, nearby Cluj-Napoca, on Dealul Lomb. These unearthed and fully investigated a Roman date building, most likely a villa rustica, unreported in the academic literature until that date.<br />The find of summer 2008 completes the picture on Roman farmhouses located in the vicinity of the Roman town at Napoca, the presence of three such sites thus confirming the importance of the area that lay to the left and right of Chinteni valley.<br />Pottery fragments and glass objects originating from the villa on Dealul Lomb are preserved in a fragmentary state, which makes difficult their accurate typological framing and finer chronology. Window pane fragments weigh most among Roman date glass fragments discovered on Dealul Lomb.<br />The Roman building and discovered archaeological material, among which the glass artefacts here, evidence that the villa had most likely functioned during the last decades of the 2nd century – first half of the 3rd century AD.</p>
