The lead-coated glass mirror from Velikiy Novgorod

A find which is unique for the Russian medieval period - a lead-coated glassmirror - was discovered in the layer dated to the second half of the 12th century in VelikyNovgorod. This find expanded our knowledge on medieval Western European artifacts used in Medieval Russia. The presence of a Western European glass mirror should be considered in the context of cultural markers of the Western European circle.
