LRCW 6: Late Roman Coarse Wares, Cooking Wares and Amphorae in the Mediterranean: Archaeology and Archaeometry cover

LRCW 6 presents papers deriving from the 6th International Conference on Late Roman Coarse Wares, Cooking Wares and Amphorae in the Mediterranean held at the Parco Archeologico e Paesaggistico della Valle dei Templi, Agrigento, 24-28 May 2017. The volume includes almost 100 papers, subdivided according to the sessions of the conference, which had a particular focus on archaeological evidence from the Mediterranean. Themes comprise sea and land routes, workshops and production centres, and regional contexts (western Mediterranean, eastern Mediterranean, Sicily and the Mediterranean islands).

‘Each contribution is well-supported with the essential tools – an abstract, keywords and a bibliography – making it easier for readers to navigate and comprehend the material. The LRCW6 proceedings make a significant and substantial contribution to the study of pottery manufacture and circulation in the Mediterranean during Late Antiquity and beyond. As such, it remains an invaluable resource for pottery specialists.’ – Elli-Evangelia Bia (2025): Bryn Mawr Classical Review
