Alabaster. :D
BoneAnother AnswerThe 'glass' you may be thinking of is obsidian -- actually a translucent stone that native peoples chipped and honed into sharp-edged tools.

Even the Romans and Persians started to use horse hair (natural fibers!) as reinforcement and/or used glass pearls to make solid walls translucent. We know that since - at least - the 50s, there has been something like textile concrete. Architects like Bill Price (Rotterdam, Houston), Will Wittig (Detroit), Francesco Passaniti (Paris), Sensitile (Detroit), Aron Losonczi (Czongrad), Christoffer Dupont (Copenhagen), Luccon (Lustenau), Andreas Bittis (Aachen) and others started and published their translucent concretes - all with optical fibers … So - who, how and where translucent concrete was "invented" is by no means a question anymore... It is now state of the art.
Stone is also an earthplant with its own material base and vibration. If you are a stone picker, the stone will let you know when you are to pick it. P.S. You don't pick the stone, the stone picks you.

The translucent stone used in floor slabs in Egyptian Pyramids was alabaster. Alabaster was prized for its light-transmitting properties, creating a unique ambiance within the pyramid chambers when natural light filtered through.
A very fine stone that light can be seen through is a alabaster. Alabaster is a quarried stone. It is white in color and translucent.

No, it's translucent.
If you mean floor "slabs", it's probably Alabaster you are refering to. Marble is not translucent and Alabaster has been used in walls of Temples to increase drama and atmosphere by holding lamps behind them. Hope that's what you mean.
