Attic pottery from the grave goods of the painted tombs in Tarquinia: some considerations

Abstract

Attic pottery found in the grave goods of the painted tombs of Tarquinia is presented. The quantities are highly variable in relation to the amounts of grave goods. The western area of the Monterozzi necropolis, i.e. Calvario area, is distinguished from the eastern one by a greater presence of Attic pottery, while in the eastern area there is much older material. The shapes recovered are almost only drinking ones with a particular preference for stemless type kylikes.
