Obsidian glass is a naturally occurring rare volcanic mineral formed as an extrusive igneous rock.
Due to the vast sources of the mineral on the islands of Hydrea and Melos they were known as the Obsidian Islands.[1]
History
Obsidian was used by farmers and warriors for thousands of years before the introduction of bronze rendered it obsolete.[2]
During the 5th century BCE, the Cyclops of Kephallonia had a prosthetic eye made of obsidian glass. The Spartan misthios Kassandra infiltrated Cyclops' residence and stole the eye on the advice of Markos.[3] Kassandra also used obsidian glass to better her gear.[4]
