Abstract
Mots-cles : atelier de ceramique, Tunisie meridionale, amphores africaines, IV e siecle, Africaine I, Keay 25, Dressel 2/4, ceramique culinaire, ceramique commune, petrographie. Resume : On presente ici la caracterisation typologique et archeometrique/petrographique de la production de l'atelier d'Oued el Akarit, en Tunisie meridionale, suite a de nouvelles prospections. Cet atelier produisait au iv e s. principalement quatre types d'amphores (Africaine I B, Africaine II D, Keay 25.1-2 et peut-etre une variante tardive du type Dressel 2/4), ainsi que des ceramiques culinaires (B et CB, mais aussi imitations des categories A et CA typiques du nord de la Tunisie) et communes. En depit des nombreux dechets de production, qui semblent exclure la presence d'importations, les analyses petrographiques ont mis en evidence une assez forte variabilite des pâtes, meme a l'interieur de chaque classe, qui pourrait etre expliquee par l'utilisation de matieres premieres et de techniques differentes dans plusieurs fours/ateliers relativement eloignes dans l'espace et/ou le temps.
