The article deals with the finds of the Roman glass vessels from five Germanic (Quadic) settlements in Western Slovakia and with two stray finds of early Roman glass beakers (scyphi) fragments. It aims at reconstructing forms and types of imported glass vessels and to follow the intensity of their occurrence in individual sites in connection with their distance from the Roman limes. It confronts the number of imported glass vessels with the quantity of Samian ware and discusses the chronology of Roman glass importation to Quadic settlements, which is compared with the presence of glass items in Germanic graves from the Roman period.
