Overview of the capacity of pottery vessels from the workshop of Sextus Metillius Maximus(Crikvenica)

Abstract

In this paper the volume of the vessels produced and found in Crikvenica’s workshop that could be used as table ware, cooking ware and storage/transport vessels (excluding amphorae) will be presented. Capacity calculations were conducted on 11 vessels found within the workshop in order to establish how the standardization of this particular workshop looked and if the obtained measures could fit within the measurement system of the Roman period.
