Two fragments of type Alzey 27 from Aguntum in East Tyrol

Abstract

The macellum of the Municipium Claudium Aguntum in south-western Noricum was excavated in 2006 and 2007. In late Roman contexts of this building two pots belonging to the group Niederbieber 89/Alzey 27 were found. This is the first evidence for this kind of vessel south of the Alps and opens the possibility of these pots having been brought to Aguntum by immigrants from the North.
