Ceramic Types

The ArchAIDE knowledge-base is a collection of search and retrieval tools that allows accessing the project reference database for types, decorations and stamps. Up to now, the knowledge-base contains types related to Terra Sigillata Italica, Hispanica, South Gaulish, and Roman Amphorae. 
Inserting a simple keyword in the search browser allows searching in all the text fields that describe each type. Clicking on the “Advanced” button, a complete form appears allowing to filter the results by all the relevant features of the specific entity. Clicking on the results allows complete access to all the information stored about a single type: description, chronology, origins and occurs, images, 3D models, references, equivalences.

ArchAIDE Types

Pascual 1 similis

Amphorae
This form is closely modelled on the Catalan Pascual 1 form. It has a high vertical rim, a cylindrical neck, ovoid body with a solid spike and long rounded handles with a vertical groove. The rim varies at the three production sites mentioned below. At Aspiran it is straight, at Montans it is gently curved, while at Corneilhan the curve is more pronounced (see Laubenheimer, 1985).
