We don't know the exact date that the Romans began making glass, but most historians think that they imported the knowledge from the Middle East (where glass making began) and began making glass around 50 BC. The Romans picked up the technology and being the Romans, improved it. By the time of Augustus, they were manufacturing glass and had developed the art of glass blowing. During the first century AD, glass making was both an art and a craft as they made practical pieces for everyday use and decorative pieces for the wealthy.
