This impressive volume presents three decades of research by its author, containing a survey of the chief types of plain, unglossed pottery produced at the Athenian Agora during the Hellenistic period (through the 1st century, BCE). Published in an oversize format (9x12.25"), the volume contains 98 pages of figures (mainly profiles of the wares) and 90 b&w plates of photos. The survey follows a general overview and is organized by vessel type, subdivided by shape, with descriptions, analysis of material, measurements, and drawings. The introductions to each vessel type provides an overview of their occurrence. Following the survey is a catalogue and a section of deposit summaries, describing every deposit from which pottery in this work came. Concordances are included of Agora excavations inventory numbers, coins, Knidian type numbers, and Murr and Agora sample numbers. Deposit and Greek indexes are provided. This will be an invaluable resource to the specialist. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
