Abstract
A knowledge of pyrotechnology - the skills of creating and working with high temperatures - attested for later prehistoric Europe first by refined ceramics in the Neolithic, then by copper and bronze metallurgy. But what about the third aspect of pyrotechnology — faience, glass and other vitreous materials? New work reported in this survey shows a place for glass in the European Bronze Age.
