This volumes examines Roman pottery and production centers in the
bay of Gaditana, modern-day Cadiz. The innovative aspects of this
research are several but we will limit them to three: the
typological classification from a closer perspective to the
mentality of the old potter; the concept of 'social measure', which
connects the dimensions of the containers with the type of consumer
and social group; and, the ethnoarchaeological aspects applied to
the construction of a furnace, which have enabled to better specify
various aspects relating to the manufacture of common Roman
ceramics. From a methodological point of view, it is proposed a
debate about the concept of 'common pottery', which is defined as
ceramics intended for a common and multipurpose use, more practical
than aesthetic. Likewise, it is exposed the great problem of the
typologies, seeking not only a logical classification into types
and variants, but also a reference to the artisan work. The theme
of the ancient name of Roman ceramic forms is faced in order to
call by the old names to the Roman pottery forms found today. The
concept of 'social measure', unprecedented in this type of
analysis, pretends to reach a social accepted measure, obtained
with a statistical study. This measure is that one around which the
values are concentrated.
