Abstract

In this work a mineralogical chemical, and petrographic characterization of Bronze age potteries from Apulian sites have been carried out.The data show different kinds of temper: pumice, calcite and of course grog added to the clay. Pyrocalstic material is allogenus in northern Apulia and absent from present day geological outcrops. Geologically the area is characterized by sedimentary formations with calcareous rocks. On the basis of the data we suggest that the finer grain -size for the pumice fragments in Apulian pottery were probably collected in a more distant site from Vesuvius. Furthermore the identification of the eruption sets a terminus post quem for the analysed protopappenine pottery: the size of the pumices used as temper allows to identufy different areas of production in respect to the distance from Vesuvius.
