Description

Summary

Amphoras were used in the ancient world to transport various different types of products, including wine and oil. This booklet is based on broken pottery found during the excavation of the Agora in Athens, but the author ranges far beyond the confines of Athens in her discussion of the purpose and significance of different amphora types.
