During the rescue archaeological excavation in Šaľa-Veča in 2002 a settlement from Roman Period has been discovered. On the basis of the current analysis of excavated material it can be dated between the second half of the 2nd century AD and the first half of the 3rd century AD. In this paper an elementary interpretation of 27 glass artefacts will be discussed, of which 15 are fragments of glass vessels, another 11 are fragments of jewellery (beads) and one is a glass bracelet. A broad typological variety has been indicated by the analysis, showing that the vessels here found were not manufactured only in adjacent Pannonia, but also in more distant manufactories of Rhineland. The beads, the most numerous part of the jewellery, were of various shape, colour and size. The glass bracelet is rather a rare find in Slovakia, having only four parallels in other sites from Roman times.
