La production et la diffusion des céramiques utilitaires de style à bandes à Argilos et dans le Nord de l'Egée aux périodes archaïque et classique.

摘要

This research aims to shed light on the production and diffusion of the Waveline style pottery made in the Northern Aegean during the Archaic and Classical periods based on the study of unpublished material recovered from seven Greek colonies established between the Strymon River and Maronea, and six sites of the Thracian hinterland. More specifically it seeks to gather information regarding workshops, trading networks, and consumption habits through typo-stylistical, distribution, and archaeometric analyses. The primary goal of this study is the detailed analysis of the finds according to their stratigraphic context in order to define the range of shapes, stylistic patterns, and clay fabrics of the ceramic series, and to establish diffusion patterns and chronology. A second objective, based on laboratory analysis. is to characterize the geochemical composition of 200 of the 540 identified vessels in order to determine their provenance (using X-ray fluorescence spectrometry). The corpus contains samples from Argilos, Thasos, Berge, and Phagres, four of the main site covered by this study. The novelty of this research lies in the opportunity it provides for archaeologists to date and identify more precisely the origin of the North-Aegean waveline pottery, leading to direct impact on discussions related to workshops, trading networks, and inter-relationships between the studied sites. Considered from the perspective of circulation and ex change, the study of the waveline pottery contributes to advancing knowledge on the economic, cultural, and social history of the Northern Aegean between the 7th and 4th centuries B.C.
