The Swiss Canton Ticino had at its heart the Roman town of Cosmo and Lake Maggiore, the shores of which were lined by a succession of Roman settlements and rich cemeteries. This examination of Roman coarse and thin-walled pottery from the Canton is based on detailed analyses of assemblages which were largely recovered from datable graves. The aim of the study is to provide a comprehensive typology of vessel forms covering the 1st to 4th centuries AD with emphasis on the 1st and 2nd centuries. An initial discussion places the vessels within their geographical and archaeological contexts, finding cultural links with the Po region of Italy. Includes an illustrated catalogue of vessels and graves.
