DÉNES GABLER AND ANDRÁS MÁRTON: Head-Pots in the Antiquities Collection

This family is known from the epigraphic record of Africa proconsularis at the end of the first century AD. The family in the second half of the second century and at the beginning had considerable wealth, gained both by farming their extensive land-holdings and by the pottery workshops they founded. The praedia Pullamorum is localised in the area of Uchi Maius near Dougga (Tunisia), Carandini 1970, 760-68; Salomonson 1980, 82, on the epigraphy see L. Leschi, Etudes d'epigraphie, d'archéologie et d'histoire africaines, Paris 1957, 12 Iff; M. Bonello Lai, "La gens Pullaiena", in M. Khanoussi and A. Mastino, Uchi Mains I, Sassari 1997, 245-81. On the ceramic production of the Dougga region, see S. Polla, "Territorio e ceramica nella regioné di Dougga (Alto Tell Tunisino)", in Territorio e produzioni ceramiche. Paesaggi, economia e societa in eta rontana (a cura di S. Menchelli and M. Pasquinucci). Instrumenta 2, Pisa 2006, 147-51. This workshop had its greatest flowering at the end of the second century and in the third: Mandel 1988, 187. On Cnidian production see most recently D. Baldoni, "Vasi a matrice di età imperiale a lasos", Missione Archeologica Italiana di lasos III (2003). Mandel 1988, 189. Dövener 2000, 150. Salomonson 1980, 73. Flecker 2005, 158; Maetzke 1958, 45 sk. See Garbsch 1981, 195-96. Salomonson 1979, 125. On the Dionysiac themes of Asia Minor oinophoroi and the symbolic meaning of funerary deposits, see Mandel 1988, 97f, 183f. Flecker 2005, 143 explains the fact that this type has not been found in other contexts with the state of research. J. W.
