Hellenistic Pottery From Lipari (Sicily) Imitating Metal Vases

Ambrosini L.

From the Lipari Island, located about 30 km from the coast of Sicily and about 80 from those of Calabria, come some silvered vases (tin-foiled) and one silvered vase decorated with gold leaf. Shapes are the pyxis, krateriskos, thymiaterion, louterion, cup, patera, simpulum, dish, strainer, skyphos, and situla. The ritual specificity of these shapes seems to prevail over their in-trinsic value. The high number of pyxides is linked to the offerings to the female sphere. The vases, reproducing precious pottery (in silver or gold) used in the consumption of wine, come from votive pits of the necropolis. As known, the diffusion of pottery imitating metal vases or other luxury objects seems to be contemporary in Etruria and Apulia. In this study shapes, iconography, production, clay origin and technique (silver plated and gilding) are analyzed in order to understand if these vases are a local or imported production; for this last topic, ar-chaeometric analyses are in progress. The most interesting result of this study is to have identi-fied the original prototypes of the scenes depicted on two pyxides (one in silvered pottery decoratedwithgoldleafand oneinsilveredpottery): they derive from Greek bronze box mir-rors. The scene takes place in a cave near a fountain outside the enclosure of the temple of Athena Alea in Tegea and shows Auge reaching out to a retreating drunken Herakles. The same scene, perhaps taken from similar moulds, appears on the famous silver gilded phiale from the Rogozen Treasure.

La violenza di Herakles su Auge. Studio del procedimento produttivo di pissidi in ceramica argentata e dorata da Lipari derivate da specchi a teca di bronzo

Documenti di culti funerari di origine egizia a Lipari in età arcaica. Una nota preliminare

Cultraro M.

L'articolo esamina e ricostruisce un contesto assolutamente eccezionale connesso alla più antica storia della fondazione cnidia di Lipari nel 580, mettendo in luce alcune tombe nella necropoli di Diana i cui corredi sono contraddistinti da materiali e pratiche riconducibili al mondo egizio.

Flooding scenarios due to land subsidence and sea-level rise: a case study for Lipari Island (Italy)

Archaeological and instrumental data indicate that the southern sector of the volcanic island of Lipari has been subsiding for the last 2100 years due to isostatic and tectonic factors, at variable rates of up to ~11 mm a1. Based on this data, a detailed marine flooding scenario for 2100 AD is provided for the bay of Marina Lunga in the eastern part of the island from (1) an ultra-high-resolution Digital Terrain and Marine Model (DTMM) generated from multibeam bathymetry (MB) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), (2) the rate of land subsidence from Global Positioning System (GPS) data and (3) the regional sea-level projections of the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). When land subsidence is considered, the upper bound of sea-level rise is estimated at 1.36 m and 1.60 m for RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 climate change scenarios, respectively. Here, we show the expected impact of marine flooding at Lipari for the next 85 years and discuss the hazard implications for the population living along the shore.

Late Pleistocene to Holocene tephrostratigraphic record from the Northern Ionian Sea.

Caron B. [1, 2]; Siani G. [1]; Sulpizio R. [3, 4]; Zanchetta G.[2, 5, 6]; Paterne M. [7]; Santacroce R.[2]; Tema E. [8, 9]; Zanella E. [8, 9]

A detailed tephrostratigraphic study supported by stable isotope (?18O) analyses and AMS 14C dating was carried out on a high sedimentation rate deep-sea core recovered in the northern Ionian Sea. Eight tephra layers were recognised, all originated from explosive eruptions of southern Italian volcanoes. These tephra layers are correlated with terrestrial proximal counterparts and with both marine and lacustrine tephra already known in the central Mediterranean area. The oldest tephra (dated at ca. 19.4 ka cal BP) is tentatively correlated to the Monte Guardia eruption from Lipari Island. Two other rhyolitic tephra layers were correlated with the explosive volcanic activity of Lipari Island: Gabellotto-Fiumebianco/E-1 (8.3 ka cal BP) located close to the interruption of Sapropel S1 deposit, and Monte Pilato (ca. AD 1335) in the uppermost part of the core. The Na-phonolitic composition of the other five recognised tephra layers indicates the Somma-Vesuvius as the source. The composition is quite homogeneous among the five tephra layers, and fits that of the Mercato proximal deposits. Beyond the striking chemical similarity with the Mercato eruption, these tephra layers span over ca. 2000 years, preventing correlation with the single well known Plinian eruption of the Somma-Vesuvius. Therefore, at least two of these tephra layers were assigned to an interplinian activity of the Somma-Vesuvius between the eruptions of Mercato and Avellino, even though these eruptions remains poorly constrained in the proximal area. By contrast, the most prominent tephra layer (2 mm white tephra visible at naked eyes) was found within the S1a Sapropel interval. Despite the possible complication for the presence of similar eruption with different ages we argue that Mercato is probably a very good marker for the onset of sapropelic condition in the Ionian Sea and can be used for land-sea correlations for this important climatic event. More in general, these data allow a significant update of the knowledge of the volcanic ash dispersal from Lipari and Somma-Vesuvius volcanoes.
