Summary
The 6th International Conference on Late Roman Coarse Wares, Cooking Wares and Amphorae in the Mediterranean, held at Agrigento's Valle dei Templi, revealed significant insights into the trade networks, production centers, and regional contexts of ceramic materials during the Late Roman period. The conference highlighted the complexity of sea and land routes that facilitated the movement of goods across the Mediterranean, while also shedding light on the organization and distribution of workshops and production sites. By examining archaeological evidence from various regions—including western and eastern Mediterranean, Sicily, and Mediterranean islands—the study provided a comprehensive overview of ceramic trade dynamics, offering new perspectives on economic and cultural exchanges during this pivotal historical period.
