Archaeologists have found evidence of man-made glass which dates back to 4000 BC;
this took the form of glazes used for coating stone beads.

It was not until 1500 BC that the first hollow glass container was made by covering a sand core with a layer of molten glass.

Humanity mined ore for about a thousand years before we figured out we could melt the stuff down to get purer metals.

orange.

The colour was named after the fruit. Orange was called Red before that. Take the Red Breasted Great Tit. It's clearly orange but it's called red. A fox is also orange but called a Red Fox.
