Excavations conducted near the village of Nein have unearthed some thirty glass vessels and two lumps of glass waste that were associated with local glass production at Nein. These vessels were discovered in several clusters within Burial Caves A, B and C, and are similar to types found in burial sites located in the vicinity of the site, as well as across a wider geographical area. The vessels date to the period spanning the late first and early third centuries CE.
