More Description

This study investigates African Red Slip Ware (ARS), kitchen ware and lamps from Augusta Vindelicum (Augsburg in Bavaria). Products from North and Central Tunisian pottery workshops are dateable from the late 1st to the first half of the 5th century AD. The provenance of North African pottery can be identified by macroscopic and chemical analyses with X-ray fluorescence. In combination with chronologically differentiated maps these analyses aim to better understand both the settlement and economic history of the provincial capital of Raetia. The chronologically important material serves as a reference for the supply of Raetia and cross-regional comparative studies.
