Zeitschrift für Archäologie und Kulturgeschichte des Donauraumes
In this paper, a small number of thin-walled, white/ cream coloured plain-surface wares were examined in the context of “eggshell wares” from Spain. The vessels come from the civilian town of Carnuntum (House IV, and one vessel from House I), and from Siscia (St. Quirinus, in front of the north gate of the ancient city). They were typologically classified and chronologically assigned. Furthermore, mineralogical and petrographic data was collected (R. Sauer), and X-ray fluorescence analysis was performed (G. Schneider and M. Daszkiewicz). Although the pottery from both locations display similarities, they belong to two distinct groups with differing provenance. Because the comparison of X-ray data between an Hispanic vessel – but not of the Baetican production – with the two groups, the group from Carnuntum and the group from Siscia, didn’t match, and also because of chronologic, typological and some fabrics reasons, it seems that both groups aren’t of Hispanic origin. No provenance could be determined certainly, but the author tends to North Italian origin.
