Abstract
The class of Grey Gloss Ware was identified and defined in the early 1980s thanks to the work of Liliana Giardino, which was later developed by Douwe Yntema. It represents a true guide fossil for the archaeological contexts of southeastern Italy from the 2nd to the 1st century B.C. In the morphological repertoire, the class was directly linked to black gloss fabrics, while from a technical point of view, firing in a reducing environment produced an effect of close correlation with metal productions. This work proposes some general considerations of chronological, morphological, and technical nature, with particular regard to the 'plate' form; some unpublished documents from Vaste and Oria are also presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
