It‘s crazy to think that you could fill the six smaller bottles with the content of the biggest bottle and still have some leftovers.

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!
Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

Impossible. First thing you need to do is fill the biggest botle, but to do that you have to go to the store.
To get to the store you have to reach half the distance, and the reach half the distance remaining, and then....
But how fast was the glass traveling
wow that's cool. If I could time travel I would love to talk to the Pompeii person who made this
I wonder how they were fabricated. Having precise units of measure and shapes that aren't basic demonstrates mastery of glass work. These must have been mass produced, but without machinery or automation. But how?
2 part clay/brick or cement mold then blow air thru tube inside?
That sounds like metal molding. I didn't think you can do glass that was. It's blown.
You can mold fabricate blown glass.
Or are you saying Roman glass couldn't be blown? It could
You can blow it into a mold to shape the outside too. It’s called blow molding
