East Greek Pottery, Hardback Book

East Greek Pottery Hardback

Hardback

Description

East Greek Pottery provides a comprehensive survey of the pottery made by the Greek settlers along the western coast of Turkey.

The various styles of decoration described cover the period from the eleventh century to the beginning of the fifth century B.C.

Subsequently, competition from Athens pressed local potters into using very simple ornament. Chapters include analysis of Grey ware, relief ware and archaic East Greek containers (or trade) amphorae, a class of pottery which is now attracting attention for its contribution to the study of ancient economic history. East Greek pottery is a field that has been neglected, and much remains uncertain.

Conjecture and fact have been clearly distinguished in this volume, and detailed references allow the evidence to be viewed and judged by the reader.
