Lixus y la caracterización petrográfica de sus ánforas
Las excavaciones realizadas en años recientes en el Sector Sur de Lixus (Larache, Marruecos) han permitido recuperar, entre otros materiales, un importante conjunto de ánforas de diversas cronologías, desde las fases finales de la época mauritana de la ciudad hasta la época tardorromana, incluyendo numerosos envases salsarios/salazoneros de tipologías propias de la región del Estrecho de Gibraltar. Teniendo en cuenta la importancia de la industri…
Assessing petrographic variability and regional connections in Medieval and Modern Catalonian Greyware Pottery
Roman pottery production in the coast of Granada (Spain) in the early Late Antiquity
The kiln site of Los Matagallares (Salobreña, Granada, Spain) is one of the most important pottery production sites of the Roman period in southern Iberia, particularly for the third century AD. The workshop produced a wide variety of ceramics, but focused on the manufacture of amphorae for the long-distance trade of local/regional fish products, wine, and other foodstuffs, and thus played an important role in the economy of Roman Baetica during …
Ceramic production and trade in Eivissa (Balearic Islands, Spain) during Vandal rule
An assemblage of ceramics discovered at the Es Castell site in the island of Eivissa, Spain, represents a significant archaeological context dating back to the period when the Balearic Islands were under the rule of the Vandal Kingdom of Carthage. Through archaeometric analysis, new evidence has emerged regarding the production and trade of ceramics on the island during this era. The pottery selection examined includes common wares, amphorae, and…
Pottery à la mode in the Late Punic world
Recent archaeological excavations in Málaga city, in southern Spain, uncovered a Late Punic pottery workshop (2nd-1st c. BC) in association with a large assemblage of red-slip tablewares ascribed to the so-called ‘Kuass ware’. These wares, which were very widespread in the Western Punic world, are known to have been produced mainly in the area of Cádiz. However, the macroscopic features of the examples found in Málaga together with their associat…
A Unique Assemblage of Roman Handmade/Slow Wheel-Made Pottery at Tamuda (Tetouan, Morocco)
A study of a 2nd century AD assemblage of handmade/slow wheel-made cooking wares, found at the Roman settlement of Tamuda (Tetouan, Morocco) is presented. Such ceramics are rare in Early-Middle Roman Imperial contexts of the western Mediterranean. A combined typological and archaeometric approach – including petrographic, mineralogical, and chemical analyses – was carried out to study this assemblage, aiming to examine the hypothesis of a local o…
Multianalytical approach to the exceptional Late Roman shipwreck of Ses Fontanelles (Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain)
The paper presents the results of an interim analytical approach to the Late Roman shipwreck of Ses Fontanelles recently found in the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain). The excellent state of preservation of the hull and the cargo, including amphorae with painted inscriptions (tituli picti), and its location in shallow waters offshore of one of the main touristic beaches of the island makes this a unique finding in the Mediterranean. A…
Sorting out problems with Late Roman eastern Mediterranean cooking wares from Tarraco (Tarragona, Spain) combining archaeology and archaeometry
Tarraco was the ancient capital of Hispania Tarraconensis, a Roman province in the Western Mediterranean. It was a strategic enclave and one of the most important ports during the Roman Empire and Late Antiquity. The archaeological record of the city shows a variety of imported products arrived from several regions including a significant amount of eastern Mediterranean wares, amongst which there are fine, table-wares, amphorae, and coarse and co…
La circulación de cerámicas a través de la cuenca del río Miño durante el final de la Edad del Hierro a partir de la Arqueología y Arqueometría
En este trabajo, presentamos un estudio completo, que incluye diferentes perspectivas de análisis, de una de las formas cerámicas más atípicas del conjunto material de la Edad del Hierro del noroeste peninsular: los vasos cilíndricos. Estas piezas, en sus diferentes formatos, son un tipo cerámico propio de la cuenca media y/o inferior del río Miño, encontrado en contextos de cambio de Era. A lo largo del texto, describimos en profundidad su tipol…
Exploring Roman and Late Roman Common Buff Wares from the rural site of Sa Mesquida (Mallorca, Balearic Islands)
Production and distribution of Late Antique utilitarian wares in the micro-region of Vallès (Catalonia, Spain)
Cooking and common wares presumably produced regionally are frequent in archaeological context of Late Antique rural sites in northeastern Spain. 142 of these wares from four settlements in the region of Vallès, in the surroundings of the ancient city of Barcino/Barcelona, were characterized through a combination of instrumental analytical techniques (OM, WD-XRF, and XRD), with the aim of investigating their provenance and production technology. …
Ostras, mejillones y la piscina loculata de la villa maritima del Cabo Trafalgar (Barbate)
Recientemente se ha retomado el estudio de la villa maritima romana y de la problemática arqueológica del Cabo Trafalgar, el antiguo Promontorium Iunonis (Barbate, Cádiz), con el objetivo fundamental de caracterizar su piscina de acuicultura, única hasta la fecha en Baetica. Se presenta en este trabajo un avance de la campaña de marzo de 2021, que ha deparado múltiples novedades: nos centramos en el estudio del denominado Conchero Oriental, algun…
A shared pottery-making tradition? Early Roman Ware 1 from Cartagena and Elche (Spain)
The so-called Early Roman Ware 1, identified by P. Reynolds in the Alicante region, was widely distributed in the eastern part of the Iberian Peninsula. The presence of this ware in Elche (Alicante) and Valencia opened the possibility that it was widely distributed across the region. Indeed, it has been considered as a possible regional product of the area of Valencia. In Cartagena (ancient Carthago Nova), where our study concentrated originally,…
Archaeometric characterization of water jars from the Muslim period at the city of Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca, Balearic Islands)
The Roman city of Pollentia was founded in 123 BCE in the northern part of the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain). The city developed through the Republican and Imperial periods. At the end of the third century CE, a large fire destroyed parts of the city, although it survived through the Vandal and the Byzantine periods. At the beginning of the tenth century, the Balearics were conquered by the Muslim forces. Recent excavations of the …
Punic amphorae found at Corinth

Caracterización arqueométrica de cerámicas comunes y de cocina tardoantiguas del asentamiento rural de L’Horta Vella (Bétera, Valencia)
Diversos contextos cerámicos recuperados en las excavaciones de L’Horta Vella (Bétera, Valencia) han proporcionado evidencias sobre la ocupación de este asentamiento rural en la Antigüedad Tardía. En este artículo, se presenta un estudio arqueométrico realizado sobre parte de este conjunto cerámico, en particular sobre una serie de cerámicas de cocina y comunes que fueron relacionadas, en un estudio arqueológico inicial, tanto con posibles produc…
Eastern Mediterranean amphorae from Late Antique urban centers of the northeastern Iberian Peninsula
Amphorae from Palestine, Turkey, the Aegean and other areas of the eastern Mediterranean are frequently documented in Late Antique archaeological contexts in northeastern Spain, in relation to the transport of wine and other products. In order to gain further information on their compositional variability, provenance and production technology, a series of these amphorae was archaeometrically characterized. The amphorae were sampled from various c…
Amphora production in the Guadalquivir valley (Spain) during the Late Roman period
Archaeometric characterization of common and cooking wares from the Late Antique city of Valentia (Valencia, Spain)
Archaeometric characterization of Late Antique pottery from the rural site of Ses Païsses de Cala d'Hort (Eivissa, Balearic Islands, Spain)
Archaeometric characterization of Iron Age indigenous pottery from the staggered turriform of Son Ferrer, Mallorca, Spain
This paper examines indigenous ceramic production at the Iron Age site of Son Ferrer in Western Mallorca in the Balearic Islands (Western Mediterranean) through archaeometric characterization using chemical and mineropetrographic techniques. Results show an important shift in ceramic production through time. The Late Iron Age (Post‐Talaiotic) pottery found at the site reflects the coexistence of various technological recipes for making pots, in c…
