Description
Summary:This study aims to present a part of the already evaluated Late Roman glazed pottery record from Aquincum and, thus, provide a typological classification based on our current knowledge. It is important to note that the present study does not include the complete – mostly fragmentary – ceramic record, comprising thousands of objects, but focuses only on eighty artefacts representing traditional types. The current evaluation concerns vessel types used on a daily basis: containers (jugs, pitchers, and bottles), serving (bowls) and drinking vessels (mugs, cups, drinking cups), mortaria, and simple lamp variants. In addition to presenting the finds, the study provides a brief general survey of glazed pottery and other Late Roman ceramic vessel types with lead glazing. In addition to presenting the finds, the study provides a brief general survey of glazed pottery and other Late Roman ceramic vessel types with optional glazing.
