Hellenistic Pottery - The Plain Wares

This book presents 847 examples of Hellenistic plain wares found in the Athenian Agora, including oil containers and household and cooking pottery. A typology of these ceramics, based on both form and fabric, is followed by a chronology, using the fact that many of the pieces were found in closed contexts such as wells.
