    Ploughsoil Assemblages and Beyond: Some Interpretative Challenges

    No full text
    The present remarks derive from on-going top-ographic-archaeological projects focusing on North coastal Etruria and South Picenum. These studies apply a global archaeology approach that includes diachronic and interdisciplinary research. In our projects particular attention is being paid to palaeogeographic aspects. Processual methodol-ogy standards are applied to our research; never-theless, geomorphologic, spatial and quantitative evidence is integrated with qualitative and symbol-ic data to reconstruct all the anthropic activities. Some remarks will be made about the inform-ative potential of ploughsoil findings, landscape complexity, strategies in collecting and studying pottery and on the importance of considering the absence of particular categories of materials. Fol-lowing this global approach and its consequential theoretical framework and rigorous methodology, archaeologists will be able to take up the interpre-tative challenge of defining landscapes in terms of their different components: sites, off-sites and their historical-functional classification. Obviously, the objective and subjective standards used for these classifications have to be explained clearly, so that the research results of a district can be used for comparisons and large-scale analyses

    Marketing Roman pottery along the Tyrrhenian coast: the case studies of Vada Volaterrana, Pisae and Luna

    This paper deals with the productive and commercial trends of pottery in North Coastal Etruria from the period of Romanization period (3rd century BC) up to the late 7th-early 8th century AD. Local and imported ceramics (vessels, amphorae, brick and tiles) have been analyzed in a diachronic perspective and their relationship has been found to be continuous: they do not appear to have been in competition, but on the contrary were complementary in the markets of this district. Local and imported goods appear to have been mutually integrated at least from the 2nd century BC until the 2nd century AD, being part of the Roman Globalizing Economy
