Ceramic Inventory

  • 1100 AD - 1250 AD
  • Il grado di frammentarietà e la quasi totale assenza di ceramica datante rendono questo contesto quasi indatabile. La datazione proposta al XII/inizi XIII secolo si basa sui pochi frammenti di ceramica da fuoco medievale e sulle quantità e tipologie decorative della ceramica acroma depurata a bande rosse. Forte presenza di residui tardoromani.
