A total of 142 of these wares from four settlements in the region of Vallès, in the surroundings of the ancient city of Barcino/Barcelona, were characterized through a combination of instrumental analytical techniques (OM, WD-XRF, and XRD), with the aim of investigating their provenance and production technology. The results confirm their regional provenance and suggest a local production of a part of the pottery assemblages, while also provide evidence of at least a secondary micro-regional trade during this period.17 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Elsevier, 2022https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Estris de cuinaCeràmica antigaArqueometriaPetrologiaVallès (Catalunya)Kitchen utensilsPottery ancientArchaeometryPetrologyVallès (Catalonia)Segle V-segle VIIIProduction and distribution of Late Antique utilitarian wares in the micro-region of Vallès (Catalonia, Spain): a perspective from the rural hinterland of Barcinoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7256612023-02-27info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
