The volume analyzes three contexts of the historic centre of Naples (Girolomini, Santa Patrizia and Piazza Bovio) that provide an insight into a chronological horizon, between the last quarter of the 4th century AD and the first half of the 5th century AD, almost unknown in Naples but of great importance both in terms of material culture and how to organize daily life, for the many clues of those changes that will characterize the second half of the fifth century. The study is based on the analysis of ceramic finds with archaeometrical insights for some classes related both to issues of origin and technological character. From a strictly ceramological and ceramocentric plan, the analysis then moves towards the reconstruction of consumption, convivial and cooking methods, and the definition of the economic landscape on a local, regional and Mediterranean scale. The pottery data are integrated with archeozoological finds and evidence of other classes (such as glass, metals) applying multivariate analysis that leads to new interpretative hypothesis of the ceramic assemblages.
