GLASS. 



Fig. 653. Vessel of whitish green glass, ornamented in various colours which have 

 been burnt on the vessel itself. The colour of the four letters D.V.B.P. repre- 

 sented on the cup has been destroyed by the effects of time, as has also that of 

 the beak, wings and legs of the bird. This, however, perfectly resembles the 

 bird on the opposite side of the cup, which is better preserved, and on which 

 the wing is light yellow with dark brownish outlines, the beak and legs red. 

 real size. Varpelev. 1
