scope note
  • A naturally occurring yellow or greenish glass made of silica found in parts of the Libyan Desert, the Western Desert of west Egypt, and along the Libyan-Egyptian border. Its origins remain a debated issue within the scientific community, but may be the result of a meteor impact fusing desert sand. The glass was used as a gemstone by the ancient Egyptians, and also as a material for paleolithic tools. (en)
  • Natuurlijk gelig glas opgebouwd uit silica dat gevonden wordt in de Libische woestijn. Over hoe het glas daar terecht is gekomen is er vooralsnog geen consensus in de wetenschappelijke wereld. Het glas werd in de Oudheid gebruikt als edelsteen voor de farao’s. (nl)
