During the nineteenth century, antiquarians such as William Gell
and George Dennis visited the ancient city of Veii, some 15 km
north of Rome, and noted the rapid destruction of its archaeology.
The city continued under to be under threat, and in the 1950s was
the subject of ground-breaking survey and excavation by John
Ward-Perkins. However, the results of his fieldwork were never
published fully. Knowledge and understanding of material culture
(especially pottery, votive objects and architectural terracottas)
has increased dramatically over the past fifty years, so allowing
the authors to reveal the full potential of the data. This
publication reaffirms many of Ward-Perkins s original insights, and
contextualizes his research within the new discoveries of the past
fifty years; whilst an important contribution to our knowledge, it
is also a spur to further work.
