Collection: Roman and Late Antique Mediterranean Pottery

Roman and Late Antique Mediterranean Pottery (RLAMP) is designed to serve as a reference point for pottery studies on a pan-Mediterranean basis, from c. 100 BC to c. AD 750. The series seeks to gather innovative individual or collective research on the many dimensions of pottery studies, such as pure, typological and chronological essays, the full publication of ceramic deposits and sequences, archaeometry, new methodologies, and studies of the economy based on pottery evidence or ethnoarchaeological research, that will all contribute to our understanding of the production, distribution and consumption of pottery in the Mediterranean basin.
