These two volumes present the results of a group of researchers working on Late Roman coarse wares, cooking wares and amphorae in the Mediterranean: archaeology and archaeometry (LRCW) that gathered in Alexandria in 2014 within the Centre d'Études Alexandrines. After initial encounters at Barcelona, Aix-en-Provence and Pisa, which highlighted productions of the western Mediterranean, the meeting in Thessaloniki launched an oriental approach that was continued in the Alexandrian gathering. The first volume is dedicated to discoveries and research in Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Tunisia, Libya and Croatia, while the second looks more particularly at the contexts of the Black Sea, Greece, and especially Egypt, which is the subject of 14 contributions.

La 4e de couverture indique : "Buto, in the western Egyptian Delta, is mainly known for its pre- and protohistoric occupations, currently being explored by the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut (Cairo). In order to investigate the Graeco-Roman and Byzantine settlement, partly revealed by the Egypt Exploration Society (EES) in the 1960s, a program was launched in 2001, directed by Pascale Ballet. In the north east of the site, the EES had excavated a pottery workshop yielding a black polished ware, influenced by Mediterranean black glazed wares. Using topographical and geophysical surveys from 2001, the excavations in the northern part of the city, conducted from 2002 to 2004, unearthed two main kinds of workshops and productions from the Early Roman period. The first one, entirely new, produced imitations of ?sigillata,? using tubes, like in Italy and Gaul, to enable the hot gases to go through the stack of pots preventing any contact with them. It is a significant example of a transfer of technology from the Western Mediterranean area, without excluding an Eastern influence. The second type of workshop, also entirely new, was devoted to common wares, sometimes with painting, heralding the style of the Late Roman/Byzantine period.0Buto was probably one of the most active centers for pottery production in the Delta during the Graeco-Roman period, and the discovery of technology previously unknown in Egypt is a new contribution to the history of pottery manufacture in the East Mediterranean area. The present study presents latest findings and samples."

Cet ouvrage collectif est le résultat d’un programme de recherche de quatre années consacré au siège épiscopal de Mariana (Lucciana, Haute-Corse). Après une présentation de la colonie romaine fondée au début du Ier siècle avant notre ère, sont exposés les résultats de l’étude archéologique de cinq édifices de culte chrétien (la basilique paléochrétienne intra-muros et son baptistère, la basilique suburbaine, la cathédrale romane ainsi que l’église San Parteo), des résidences épiscopales successives ainsi que du territoire de cet ancien évêché. Bien que l’agglomération abandonnée de Mariana ait fait l’objet de deux programmes de recherche par le passé (1958-1967 et 1998-2007), de nombreuses questions restaient posées. La relecture systématique des vestiges dégagés anciennement, l’étude des constructions conservées en élévation, le réexamen des mobiliers archéologiques et les datations par le radiocarbone permettent aujourd’hui de répondre à une partie de ces interrogations. On peut ainsi proposer de nouvelles interprétations et une chronologie plus précise de ce centre du pouvoir d’un intérêt majeur pour l’histoire de la Corse. Au-delà, une mise en perspective de cet ensemble au destin si singulier amène aussi à porter un autre regard sur l’ancienne colonie de Mariana et sur sa place dans le contexte de la Méditerranée occidentale entre le Ve et le XVe siècle
