description Abstract Glass alteration in the presence of microorganisms has been a topic of research for over 150 years.

The breadth and depth of these studies are the topic of this review. This review presents a detailed history and a comprehensive overview of this field of research, while maintaining focus on the terrestrial alteration of anthropogenic silicate glasses.
