Officina di IG XIV2 – Tre inediti ‘impastatoi’ per l’argilla con iscrizione da Taranto
Abstract
The paper discusses eight partly unpublished clay objects kept at MArTa and provides the first edition of the Greek inscriptions on three of them. These objects belong to a group of morphologically heterogeneous tools used for working with clay, which are given different names both in the Museum’s records and in literature (kneaders, pestles, sanders, etc.). However, there is no exact correspondence between shapes and names, which shows that the functions of these tools are not fully understood. The paper is therefore an attempt at a more thoughtful insight into this topic and discusses the role of inscriptions.
