The first evidences of glass manufacture is found around the mid-third millennium B.C. in the Near East and in Egypt, when this new material was used to make small filled objects imitating mostly stone (necklace beads), in the following millennium, Egyptian craftsmen perfected the technique and invented the process known as the core-forming, that allowed the shaping of small containers especially suited for storing and transporting small quantities of liquids or unguents (cosmetics). Glass definitely replaced clay as the raw material of choice for the manufacture of containers in all areas of daily life towards the end of the Hellenistic period: this event, which occurred gradually, is to be considered a major technological revolution of antiquity. In early Roman times, the invention and widespread use of the blowpipe and the invention of furnaces able to resist the temperatures needed for the melting of sands (transparent glass) gave the final impetus to the success of glass. With a versatility like no other known material in Roman times, abundant availability, lightness and ease of use, glass enabled the imitation of a wide range of other materials (especially precious metals), whether in the form, the design or the color. Furthermore, glass is a chemically neutral substance, which makes it particularly suitable for the storage of food, but also of cosmetics or pharmaceutical products.
