Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Elis war die Hauptstadt der gleichnamigen antiken Landschaft in der nordwestlichen Peloponnes. Sie besass uberregionale Bedeutung dadurch, dass sie die administrative Kontrolle uber das panhellenische Zeusheiligtum von Olympia und damit auch uber die Olympischen Spiele ausubte. Bei den griechischen Ausgrabungen, die zwischen 1960 und 1970 im Stadtgebiet von Elis durchgefuhrt worden sind, kamen zahlreiche figurliche Terrakotten zu Tage, die nun erstmals vorgestellt werden. Zu dem umfangreichen Material gehoren neben matrizengeformten Tonfiguren klassischer bis spathellenistischer Zeit zahlreiche Protomen und Fragmente von modellierten Tonplastiken des 5. und 4. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. In Motiven, Technik und Qualitat gibt es Ubereinstimmungen mit den in Olympia ausgegrabenen Terrakotten. Auch schliesst die von Hand modellierte elische Tonplastik zeitlich an die von Olympia unmittelbar an. Die Anzahl der importierten Stucke ist gering, doch die Analysen legen Zusammenhange besonders mit den Werkstatten von Korinth und Bootien nahe. Die Verbindungen, die Heide Froning und Nina Zimmermann-Elseify zwischen der elischen und der westgriechischen Terrakottenproduktion aufzeigen, sind von hohem archaologischen Interesse.
