This article discusses the problems surrounding the matching of South Gaulish terra sigillata shapes to the descriptions used by their potter manufacturers and modern sigillata type-series produced by scholars in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It then goes on to postulate which shapes and types of vessel might have dressed a Roman table, and how those vessels might have been used. The discussion is quantified by examples of comparative frequencies occurring at the kiln site and on export sites within a historical framework of key consumer sites
