From a simple purchase of a few old pieces at a local flea market to years of extensive research into their chemistry, designs and religious significance, the author takes the reader on a journey back millennia when meteorites left an indelible impact on early civilizations.

Like a treasure hunt in reverse, the reader is transported to 9,080 years ago, when a plain glass cup with a metal handle and base was made of raw materials from out of this world.

The radiocarbon dating, glass chemistry, historical accounts, designs and probable travel path paint a fascinating journey from the Black Sea and throughout Europe to Canada, as well as the guardians of the ancient cup from its pagan roots through religious sects.

The author, current guardian of the cup and pieces, has painstakingly researched the cup over the last seventeen years, and offers an objective historical lesson for readers to evaluate the findings on their own, and to reach their own conclusions. Could these be the Last Supper pieces?
