Solid?

[edit]

I thought the process of relaxation showed that glass isn't really a solid or a liquid. 2600:6C44:6E00:178B:FA4:406B:E95A:EC85 (talk) 08:48, 15 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

In the intro, please change "3,600 BC" to "3600 BC". Commas aren't usually used for digit grouping in year numbers (it's not 2,023 right now), and they're not used in any of the other pre-1000BC years that appear in the history section. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 23:31, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong date

[edit]

The Roman cage cup photo under the History section should say 4th century C.E., not B.C. 2601:19D:403:DFE0:257D:4F2B:5656:37FC (talk) 05:34, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
