This project is the classification, and installation in the museum of Alexandria, of the most notable of all collections of stamped handles. Such handles are fragments of stamped commercial containers made of earthenware, and the stamps on the handles are control stamps, impressed before firing, current chiefly in the great period of the ancient port city of Alexandria, from the latter 4th to the last century B.C., and, within that period, sometimes very closely datable. The containers were largely made for the transport of wine, but certainly re-used in ancient Egypt for every sort of fluid or semi-fluid commodity, as we know from may mention in papyri. 2021-12-24T11:19:17Z 2021-12-24T11:19:17Z 1966-03 Journal https://library.arce.org/handle/123456789/137 en application/pdf American Research Center in Egypt |
