摘要：The aim of this paper is to show the preliminary results of the second archaeological season at the Roman river port of Rusellae, in the territory of Alberese (Grosseto, IT). The research has led to the discovery of a large glass workshop, dated from the late 2n dc. up to the end of the 5t hc.. Two kilns for blowing vessels have been identified, with a counter built in stones and tiles. Outside of this workshop a bigger kiln has been revealed, used to temper the glass objects. The excavations have also proved the presence of a metalworking infrastructure, inside the large opus incertum building found in 2010. The base of a forge, as well as a big cocciopesto basin, has come back to the light, with a large collection of bronze and iron objects. The site seems to be in decline soon after the late 5t hc. AD: a necropolis was set on the ruins of the buildings, made up of at least 4 burials. From the mid 6thc. AD, the area was used as an agricultural field , as 12 furrows can witness. Century by century, then, the site was subject to periodical floodings, resulting in a 2m thick level of clay sealing the archaeological remains
