The urban area of Hellenistic and Roman Sikyon was the subject of one of the largest and most intensive archaeological surveys in the Mediterranean region, The Sikyon Survey Project. Through the systematic study of the compositions of the ceramics and local clays from the survey, combined with typological identifications and historical accounts, it became possible to trace the rise and decline of a ceramics industry at Sikyon.0The character, scope and scale of this industry, the clays used, and the related economic circumstances and industries are all explored. One of the key findings of this book is the presentation of a clear case for significant economic growth occurring after the Roman conquest of this region
