Abstract

Archaeometric data on black gloss pottery (BGP) from the area of Ostia, as well as from central Italy, are scarce (Morel and Picon 1994; Olcese and Picon 1998; Niro Giangiulio 1999; Gliozzo and Memmi Turbanti 2004). The production was probably distributed among several workshops, as suggested by preliminary analyses on other contexts of Latium (Olcese 1998).
