I wonder if it was shipped as cullet rather than sand?
I seem to remember a rather large glass slab discovered
in the Serapeum. I wouldn’t think it was of this quality

By “large” I mean LARGE.
Some thing like 10’x15’x3’!!!
It is now part of the floor in one of the chambers...

Imagine what it takes to melt that much silica!
