Materielle Kultur und Kulturelle Identitat in Elea

By Verena Gassner, Bettina Kratzmüller, Roman Sauer

Excavations in 1991 in the town of Elea, on the southwest coast of Italy, uncovered large amounts of pottery which Gassner reports on here. The aim is to determine the material culture and cultural identity of the town and its environs during the late archaic and early classical periods. Supported by an illustrated catalogue, Gassner identifies a range of sources for the vessels, reflecting the area's occupation by Phoenicians, Greeks and Romans.
