Fascinating world of ancient #glass: This magnificent #Roman #fish-shaped flask was found during the excavation of a storeroom in Begram/Afghanistan. It was probably made in a workshop at Alexandria/Egypt, dating 1st/2nd century AD. Begram was a major trading city at the Silk Road, the flask was found in one of two storerooms of a merchant, filled with luxury good.

People think I'm joking when I say Lithuanian supermarkets have a herrings section. Well, there's literally a full shelf of different herring varieties in this small inner-city Iki convenience store.
