Book Synopsis Morgantina Studies, Volume VI by : Shelley C. Stone
Download or read book Morgantina Studies, Volume VI written by Shelley C. Stone and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-01-25 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excavation of the ancient city of Morgantina in southeastern Sicily since 1955 has recovered an extraordinary quantity and variety of pottery, both locally made and imported. This volume presents the fine-ware pottery dating between the second half of the fourth century BCE, when Morgantina was a thriving inland center closely tied to the Hellenistic east through Syracuse, and the first half of the first century CE, when Morgantina had been reduced to a dwindling Roman provincial town that would soon be abandoned. Bearing gloss and often paint or relief, these fine ceramics were mostly tableware, and together they provide a well-defined picture of the evolving material culture of an important urban site over several centuries. And since virtually all these vessels come from dated deposits, this volume provides wide-ranging contributions to the chronology of Hellenistic and early Roman pottery. An introductory chapter sketches out a comprehensive history of the city, discusses the many well-dated archaeological deposits that contained the excavated pottery, and defines the major fabrics of the ceramics found at the site. The bulk of the volume consists of a scholarly presentation of more than 1,500 pottery vessels, analyzing their shapes, fabrics, chronology, decoration, and techniques of fabrication. This rich ceramic material includes significant bodies of Republican black-gloss and red-gloss vases, Sicilian polychrome ware, and Eastern Sigillata A, as well as early Italian terra sigillata, with numerous examples imported from Arezzo and other Italian centers, along with regional versions from Campania and elsewhere on Sicily. The relief ware includes important groups of third-century BCE medallion cups and hemispherical moldmade cups of the second and first centuries BCE. Morgantina was also an active center of pottery production, and the debris from several workshops has been recovered, enabling Shelley Stone to reconstruct the working techniques and materials of the local craftsmen, the range of ceramics they produced, and how their products were influenced by pottery imported to the site from elsewhere on Sicily, the Italian mainland, and even more distant centers. The volume also presents new information about the sources of the clay used by the Morgantina potters, as revealed by X-ray fluorescence analysis of selected vases.

Book Synopsis Late Classical, Hellenistic, and Roman Pottery by : John W. Hayes
Download or read book Late Classical, Hellenistic, and Roman Pottery written by John W. Hayes and published by American School of Classical Studies at Athens. This book was released on 2022-09-02 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the Late Classical through Roman pottery from the University of Chicago excavations at Isthmia (1952-1989). In a series of three chapters-on the Late Classical and Hellenistic pottery, the Roman pottery, and the pottery from the Palaimonion-a general discussion is followed by a catalog presenting datable contexts and then by a catalogue of other noteworthy pottery. Appendixes discuss the stratigraphy of the Palaimonion and observations on new and previously published lamps. Amphora stamps are the focus of a further appendix, followed by a catalogue of the Slavic and Byzantine pottery found in the sanctuary area. Although the pottery is sometimes fragmentary, the range of materials over this thousand-year period is typical of Corinthian sites. The finds presented here provide critical information about the history of the Panhellenic sanctuary of Poseidon and the ritual activities that took place there.
Book Synopsis The Hellenistic and Roman Pottery from Troia by : Billur Tekkök-Biçken
Download or read book The Hellenistic and Roman Pottery from Troia written by Billur Tekkök-Biçken and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study of the Hellenistic and Roman pottery of Troia is based on the finds from the excavations of 1989 to 1995 which cover the area of the Acropolis, the Greek and Roman Sanctuary, and the Lower City. The main aim of this study is to establish the chronology of the site and its structures. The finds from the fill deposits are also used to provide evidence for the typology of the wares, mainly the locally produced wares. In the Hellenistic and Early Roman periods, roughly around the middle of the second century B.C. to the first century A.D., there is a local production of fine and coarse wares. Fine ware production includes moldmade bowls, relief wares, and red slipped, semi-glazed, and white-slipped wares. The forms commonly used are fish-plates and bowls. Fine wares imitate common forms of sigillata, mainly Pergamene wares. Coarse ware production is identified in plain wares, basins, amphorae, and vessels with thin-walls. The geographical position of Troia in relation to the trade of both the Aegean and Black Seas led to the importation of a wide range of fine and coarse wares. Pergamene wares imported from the middle of the second century B.C. onwards include black glazed wares, West Slope style kantharoi, plates, kraters, Pergamene thin ware and gray examples. From the late Augustan period onwards Pergamene/Candarli wares dominate the market in Troia. Second to the third century A.D. examples of the ware are well represented in the Lower City houses. Examples of Italian sigillata are few in quantity, mostly appear in the Julio-Claudian period, after which there is a decline of the ware. Eastern sigillata A is present from 100 B.C. onwards, and extends to the Antonine period. Eastern sigillata B starts to appear in late Augustan period in the Sanctuary area, and from the Claudian to Hadrianic periods in the Lower City. Pontic sigillata imports start in the middle of the first century and extend into the second century A.D. Other unknown sigillata groups are present, they may link to the Black Sea centers. Thin-walled wares start to be imported at the end of second century, but are more frequent in the first century B.C. from Italy; middle of the first century to the second century A.D. examples are Phocaean. African sigillata imports start from the middle of the third century A.D., with few examples present in the second. Late Roman C/Phocaean Red Slip wares from the fifth to the end of the sixth century A.D. are well-represented, they share the market with widely distributed forms of African Red Slip wares within the fifth century A.D. The Troia pottery furnishes evidence for the scope of maritime trade connections with the West and East Mediterranean, and the Black Sea region during this period of time. There is a rise in the quantity of fine pottery from the Claudian to the Flavian periods, not yet supported by building activity at the site. Hadrian's renovation of the major buildings relate to the second and third century A.D. activities at the site. Third century A.D. burned deposits in the Lower City and the Odeion scaenae may relate to the Gothic and Herulian attacks. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).
Book Synopsis An Island Economy by : Scott Gallimore
Download or read book An Island Economy written by Scott Gallimore and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the first presentation of Hellenistic and Roman period ceramic assemblages from the city of Hierapytna, located on the southeast coast of Crete. Recovered from three rescue excavations in the heart of the ancient city, this pottery records a diachronic history of Hierapytna from the third century B.C. to the seventh century A.D. Through meticulous analysis of these assemblages, including a detailed catalogue of all of the major ceramic categories encountered on Greco-Roman sites and an exhaustive economic synthesis that places Hierapytna in regional and international contexts, Scott Gallimore documents the growth and decline of this ancient city. An evolving role in numerous exchange networks enabled Hierapytna to grow from a promising Hellenistic center into a major Roman metropolis before it succumbed to pressures that led to a steady decline throughout the Late Roman period. An Island Economy outlines the historical trajectory of an eastern polis and demonstrates that its rise and fall are connected to pan-Mediterranean exchange networks, a subject that will be of great interest to archaeologists, ceramicists, economic historians, and students of the Greco-Roman world.

Download or read book Porphyreon written by Urszula Wicenciak and published by Archeobooks. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pottery workshop in the village of Porphyreon on the Phoenician coast (modern Jiyeh in Lebanon), a site midway between Beirut and Saida, operated on a local scale, with some breaks, from the middle of the 2nd century BC to the 7th century AD. It produced mainly amphorae and kitchen vessels. A Polish-Lebanese rescue project in 2004 probed a Hellenistic and Roman pottery production zone in the village, yielding an assemblage of ceramic vessels and wasters that supported an extensive study of the local repertory of vessels as well as the clay of which they were made. By the same, Porphyreon became the second, after Berytus, Hellenistic and Roman pottery production site to be excavated on the Lebanese coast, whereas laboratory analyses of the chemical composition of the clay have supplied a key criterion for distinguishing vessels made locally from other ceramic production in Phoenicia. The study presents the assemblage from Jiyeh, including a typological and chronological classification of the vessels, and discusses the finds in relation to trends and phenomena typical of Phoenician pottery production in the periods in question. The overall picture of local workshop output provides important insights into the history of ancient trade and craftsmanship in central Phoenicia. A formal examination of the ceramic material, combined with an analysis of ancient written and other sources, has thrown light on the administrative status of the settlement, placing it in the hinterland of Sidon rather than Berytus in the Hellenistic and Roman age. Moreover, it has given a unique village perspective of the economy of ancient Phoenicia, knowledge of which has been shaped primarily by data from the large urban centers, such as Sidon, Tyre and Berytus.

Book excerpt: Roman pottery, defined for convenience as that made and used within Italy and the Roman provinces between about 100 BC and AD 600, can be characterized by a group of stylistic and technical developments which built upon those of the Hellenistic Greeks and then led to those of the Byzantine and Islamic worlds. Roman pottery can thus provide evidence for ancient literacy, artistic trends and trading patterns within the complex of Mediterranean lands which made up the empire.
