^{page 327 note 1} The literary evidence for the importation of Gaulish glaziers in 675 (Bede, Historia Abbatum, ed. C. Plummer, 1896, cap. 5) has been discussed in the interim report on this site (Medieval Archaeology, vol. xiii forthcoming) and in Studies in Glass History and Design (Eighth International Congress on Glass, London, 1968), pp. 16–19Google Scholar.

Not mentioned in previous discussions of this glass is the remarkable fragment from Jarrow (see pl. livc, d) which is an opaque greenish-blue in reflected light and clear amber in transmitted light. The only parallel I can find for this phenomenon (though the colours are different) is the famous Lycurgus Cup in the British Museum.

^{page 328 note 2} D. B. Harden has claimed that all Saxonwindow-glass is of this type, ‘Domestic window-glass, Roman, Saxon, and Medieval’, Studies in Building History, ed. Jope, E. M., London, 1961, p. 55Google Scholar, and has subsequently examined glass from Monkwearmouth and Jarrow, stating that this is the same type. His judgement is unquestionably confirmed by the spectrographic analysis (see Appendix). Such glass is also known in the north from the Saxon site at Escomb and will be published in a forthcoming volume (J.B.A.A.

When first discovered these fragments, which were reconstructed into a cross pattée accompanied by alpha and omega, were thought to be part of a reliquary. They have been very convincingly described as window-glass and assigned to an earlier date by Lafond, Jean, Le Vitrail (Les Arts Chretiens 12), Paris, 1966, pp. 19–21Google Scholar.
