Description

The catalogue of 461 Roman metal vessels from Mainz and Rhine-Hesse provides for the first time a comprehensive overview of this important group of materials for the legionary site and the provincial capital Mainz and its surroundings. All known vessels and vessel fragments from museums, private collections and the holdings of the State Archaeology Department are dealt with in this volume, including those that have only survived as literature citations. As expected, by far the largest share of finds comes from the urban area of Mainz and from the Rhine, whose course partly borders the settlement areas. It should be taken into account that the distribution of finds here also reflects the excavation and collection history. As far as possible, the objects have been redrawn in reconstructive form; photographs document the actual state of preservation. Metal analyses are available for almost half of the vessels. The catalogue classifies the find material according to metal type, functional and typological criteria. Detailed information on the state of research as well as detailed chronological explanations of the vessel types go beyond a purely descriptive catalogue and anticipate parts of the planned evaluation.
