A CERÂMICA DE TIPO KUASS DAS ESCAVAÇÕES DO TEATRO ROMANO DE LISBOA
Abstract
In this paper we present the Kuass ware assemblage recovered during the excavations that took place in Lisbon´s Roman Theater area. The set is small, with only four fragments, but its importance is indisputable considering it is one of the most distant areas in the Western Atlantic Iberian Peninsula where these “Hellenistic” artifacts were found. The chronology we propose for these fragments is also relevant, considering that these vessels seem to have arrived to Lisbon during latter times, probably in the framework of the reintegration of the Western areas in the large-scale commercial circuits of the Roman Republican Period (2nd half ot the 2nd century / early 1st century BC).
