Hellenistic painted goblets in Alexandria /
:
Les gobelets peints ont été durant de longues années considérés comme un groupe de céramique égyptienne unique et difficile à définir. Leur riche iconographie restait incomprise et leur datation placée à l'époque romaine ou romaine tardive. L'examen de la collection de tessons réunie par Lukas Benaki dans les années 1930 dans la nécropole de Hadra à Alexandrie et conservée au British Museum, au Musée gréco-romain d'Alexandrie et au Musée Benaki d'Athènes et de quelques vases complets, ainsi que des fragments mis au jour dans des fouilles récentes bien stratifiées à Alexandrie a permis de conforter la datation à l'époque hellénistique (IIe-Ier siècle av.0J. -C.), proposée par D. Bailey et de fixer leur lieu de production en Maréotide. Il a été possible d'identifier des scènes de procréation, d'accouchement et de banquet, associées à des représentations d'une nature prolifique, qui placent ces vases dans un contexte cultuel de célébration de la vie et de la renaissance. Ce volume a recu le prix "A la Mémoire de Jean Leclant" décerné par la Fondation Michela Schiff Giorgini en 2020.

Tracing pottery-making recipes in the prehistoric Balkans 6th-4th millennia BC /
:
This is a collection of 12 chapters that capture the variety of current archaeological, ethnographic, experimental and scientific studies on Balkan prehistoric ceramic production, distribution and use. The Balkans is a culturally rich area at the present day as it was in the past. Pottery and other ceramics represent an ideal tool with which to examine this diversity and interpret its human and environmental origins. Consequently, Balkan ceramic studies is an emerging field within archaeology that serves as a testing ground for theories on topics such as technological know-how, innovation, craft tradition, cultural transmission, interaction, trade and exchange. This book brings together diverse studies by leading researchers and upcoming scholars on material from numerous Balkan countries and chronological periods that tackle these and other topics.

Once upon a time in the East : the chronological and geographical distribution of terra sigillata and red slip ware in the Roman East /
:
Philip Bes summarises the results of his PhD thesis (Catholic University of Leuven) on the analysis of production trends and complex, quantified distribution patterns of the principal traded sigillatas and slipped table wares in the Roman East, from the early Empire to Late Antiquity. He draws on his own work in Sagalassos and Boeotia, as well as an exhaustive review of archaeological publications of ceramic data. The analysis compares major regional blocks, documenting coastal as well as inland sites, and offers an interpretation of these complex data in terms of the economy and possible distribution mechanisms.
