The small glass fragment shows on blue, transparent background an amorphous lattice structure made of light blue lines. In the spaces are distorted, light blue circles. In Roman times, they used colored, ornamented glass for vessels, mosaics, wall decorations and furniture ornaments. For the production, different colored glasses were shaped into tubes and rods. These were compressed and heated, causing a long bar. The glass sliced now had a wide variety of amorphous or floral patterns.Textile Fragment. Culture: Swiss. Dimensions: Overall: 5 x 3 5/8 in.

Graphite on wove paper with gilt edges, bound in a leather coverSpiral pendant ca. 7th-6th century B.C. Iran This silver pendant consists of two spirals connected by an intertwined stem. A horizontal sleeve for suspension is at the top. It was excavated at Tepe Nush-i Jan, an Iron Age hilltop site about 60 km sound of Hamadan in western Iran. Nush-i Jan was occupied in the 7th and 6th centuries B.C., and its occupants are generally thought to be the Medes, an Iranian people known from Assyrian, Achaemenid and Biblical sources. Though the textual sources portray them as a powerful empire, archaeological evidence for the Medes has yet to sustain this impression. Rather, they seem to have lived in scattered fortified sites in western and central Iran, without any clear capital. Nush-i Jan, one of the best known of these sites, features two temples, a columned hall, and a fort, where the pendant was found.The pendant was discovered in a bronze bowl containing 231 pieces of silver, including jewelry, ingots and scraps.
