Two italian arretine sigillata
"molioli" from Herrera de Pisuerga Magazine of the Institute of Prehistory and
Archeology Sautuola
AMARC-IEU: 19/04/2024
The article by PhD. Cesáreo Pérez, published in
scientific magazine
Sautuola's tribute dedicated to Ramón Bohigas Roldán
(1956-2018), focuses its attention towards the study of
two high imperial ceramic vessels found during
archaeological excavations at Herrera de Pisuerga
(Palencia, Spain). Both vessels were made in M.
Perennius’ workshop in Arezzo (Italy) and are a very
rare type of find for a location so far away from Italy.
According to the archaeological context in which these
“modiolo” ceramics appeared, it is very likely that they
were used by the Legio IIII Macedonica officials in the
1st century BC.
