This book reports on the excavation of a faience kiln at Kom Helul,
Memphis. The kiln is of the early Roman Period and appears to be of
the same type as those excavated by Flinders Petrie in the early
twentieth century. The book attempts to place Petrie's finds in
their archaeological context and to reinterpret his evidence in the
light of findings from the new excavation. In so doing, a new
outline of the chaine operatoire of faience production during the
Roman Period is proposed and its relationship to the making of
pre-Roman faience is discussed. The book includes an illustrated
catalogue of finds.
