The Consumers' Choice

Sinopse

"The papers in this volume are elaborations of talks presented at the 2015 Annual Meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America in New Orleans. Five were part of a colloquium, 'Consumers' Choice : Uses of Greek Figure-Decorated Pottery,' which was sponsored by the Pottery in Context Research Network. This group, formed in 2011-2012 and sponsored by the Institute of Classical Studies at the University of London, supports research on figure-decorated and associated pottery, with particular focus on shape, iconography, and material contexts in the Mediterranean basin of the eleventh to fourth centuries B.C.E.
