Terra sigillata da Cales

The authors analyse a small group of plain and relief-decorated fragments of terra sigillata manufactured at Cales in the Augustan period. Morphologically, these products show a close resemblance to the other Italic terra sigillata wares; nevertheless, some elements appear to be characteristic of Cales.
The distribution of potters' stamps shows that the Calenian red-gloss ware circulated on a scale that was not exclusively regional, probably along the same trade routes that were used for Calenian black-glazed ware.
