A Unique Assemblage of Roman Handmade/Slow Wheel-Made Pottery at Tamuda (Tetouan, Morocco): Provenance, Production Technology, and Archaeological Implications Fantuzzi, Leandro Bernal Casasola, Darío Cau Ontiveros, Miguel Ángel Bustamante Álvarez, Macarena Ceràmica romana Mauritània Tingitana Arqueologia clàssica Utensilis de pedra Marroc Roman pottery Mauretania Tingitana Classical antiquities Stone implements Morocco A study of a 2nd century AD assemblage of handmade/slow wheel-made cooking wares, found at the Roman settlement of Tamuda (Tetouan, Morocco) is presented. Such ceramics are rare in Early-Middle Roman Imperial contexts of the western Mediterranean. A combined typological and archaeometric approach ―including petrographic, mineralogical, and chemical analyses― was carried out to study this assemblage, aiming to examine the hypothesis of a local or regional provenance and to shed light on its production technology. The results indicate the existence of a diversity of products, including a fabric that was likely locally manufactured, as well as other imported fabrics that point to micro-regional distribution or trade of some of these wares. This research is a significant contribution towards a better understanding of the handmade/slow wheel-made pottery that was produced and consumed in the northern Moroccan Rif in the Roman period. 2025-02-04T00:28:20Z 2025-02-04T00:28:20Z 2025-02-04T00:28:20Z 2025-01-21T16:15:53Z 2025-01-21T16:15:53Z 2024-10-15 2025-01-21T16:15:53Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/ http://hdl.handle.net/2445/217771 https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.1163/21915784-bja10035 Journal of African Archaeology, 2024, vol. 22, num.1-2, p. 115-141 https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.1163/21915784-bja10035 , 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Africa Magna Verlag, Frankfurt
