Abstract
Presents a standardized system for the cataloguing of glass artifacts excavated from Canadian sites by Parks Canada. The vast majority of the glass dates from the 18th and 19th century and was imported from France and Great Britain. Intended to assist in making Parks Canada's records consistent in terminology and usage, and also to serve as a reference tool for inventorying, cataloguing, and researching glass artifacts of the types cited. -- AATA
