This book examins native Matt-Painted pottery from Iron Age and Classical Southern Italy within the context of native social change and of the relationship between the Greeks and the natives. This is the first attempt to move away from a purely typological approach to Matt-Painted pottery and to study it within its social context, casting light upon ceramic innovation and wider social development.
