Die Verbreitung von Terra Sigillata aus den Manufakturen von Arezzo, Pisa, Lyon und La Graufesenque
Die Transformation der italischen Sigillata-Herstellung in Gallien
In the last decades of the 1st century B.C., some of the major producers of sigillata in Arezzo set up branches in Gaul to serve the local market. These soon drove the parent companies out of business. This process is documented by 230 distribution maps.
The branches in Gaul are presented in the context of the development of economic centres. They led to a transformation of this originally Italic industry, which was also reflected in a change in the legal status of potters and potteries in Gaul. In addition, transport costs were determined using GIS applications and visualised on maps. Dated sites allow a chronological categorisation of the potters discussed.
