Workshop of populist Romano-Gaulish potter discovered


Recommended Posts

In a related article to the previous one I posted recently about the discovery of a Hoard of 'necessity' coins, Past Horizons is carrying a very good follow-up article on the workshops themselves.

 

The new article includes several images including 360 degree photographs of the excavations and much more on the Gallo-Roman (or as the article states Romano-Gaulish) potter Pistillus himself here plus images of some of the figurines and related material found on the site.

 

Part of a two thousand year old settlement has recently been discovered within the suburbs of the French town of Autun. Founded at the beginning of the 1st century AD, Autun was built by order of the first Roman Emperor, Augustus, (27 BC-14 AD) and was named after him
