Chemical analyses of eight fragments of common transparent glass recovered in Ganzirri (most of them classified as Isings 111).

• Electron microprobe analysis (EMPA):
used to determine the chemical composition of major and minor elements (Si, Ti, Al, Mn, Mg, Fe, Ca, K, Na, Cr, Co, Sb, Cu, Sn).

• Laser ablation - inductively coupled plasma - mass spectroscopy (LA-ICP-MS):
used to determine the chemical composition of trace elements (Ga, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Cs, Ba, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Hf, Ta, Pb, Th, U).

• X-ray absorption spectroscopy:
Fe and Mn K-edge XANES spectra collected in fluorescence mode at the GILDA-CRG beamline.

• Major elements:
all fragments: natron-based silica-lime glass.

• Minor and trace elements:
- glass with high Fe, Ti and Mn contents (HIMT glass),
- glass with low levels of Fe, Ti and Mn (Levantine I glass).
