  • In 1963, a team of archaeologists, scientists, and glass enthusiasts from The Corning Museum of Glass and the University of Missouri began an archaeological mission to answer critical questions about ancient glass production. After surveying multiple potential sites, they settled on Jalame el-Asafna in modern Israel, a stone’s throw from the Na’aman (ancient Belus) River which Roman sources claimed was the primary source of sand to make glass. The excavations generated the first systematic documentation of a glass workshop in the Roman tradition and paved the way for two generations of ancient glass research.
    60 years later, The Corning Museum of Glass celebrates and expands this legacy with the exhibition Dig Deeper: Discovering an Ancient Glass Workshop. With an accompanying comic-style publication, the exhibition highlights the process of archaeological knowledge creation and the people who conduct it. In this presentation, we will provide new insight into the discoveries from Jalame and how the exhibition planning teams transformed fragmentary and inscrutable archaeological materials into a compelling and immersive exhibition for visitors of all ages.
