Die vermeintlich pergamenische Importkeramik in Ephesos : Studien zur Typologie, Provenienz und Herstellungstechnik von so genannter Weissgrundiger Ware, Applikenkeramik und Pergamenischer Sigillata Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Die vermeintlich pergamenische Importkeramik in Ephesos is the first comparative study of three ceramic ware groups, namely Applique Ware, White-grounded ware and Pergamene Sigillata, which appear in Ephesos (on the Aegean coast of modern day Turkey) but, until now, were considered to be products made in and imported from Pergamon; one ware group was even named after the city.

However, using intensive archaeometrical analysis tools, such as thin-section and microscopy, this study seeks to demonstrate that most of the ceramic objects were produced locally.

Futhermore, the book presents stunning new data that showing the very differing technical knowledge among the ancient potters of Western Asia Minor.

Emerging out of the archaeometrical analyses, the book provides a list of concrete parameters for the identification of provenance in the field.

Furthermore, this study encompasses the first typochronology for the three ware groups, which allows future excavations in the wider region to set up a fine chronology of their contexts based on ceramic evidences.
