Excavations in Pisa carried out between 1985 and 1988 in Piazza del Duomo, close to the Leaning Tower (saggio D) provided much new data regarding the origins of the city. This book studies the ceramic finds and redefines the role of Pisa in the Hellenistic period as one of the major trade centres of northern coastal Etruria.
Il carattere etrusco della citta di Pisa e stato messo in discussione per molto tempo. Tuttavia, grazie a un periodo intenso di indagini archeologiche sistematiche intraprese a meta degli anni Ottanta del secolo scorso, e stato possibile confermare definitivamente l’antica origine etrusca dell’insediamento, come gia riportato da numerose fonti storiche antiche. Uno dei principali interventi di scavo e quello effettuato tra il 1985 e il 1988 a breve distanza dalla torre pendente (saggio D), dove e stata portata alla luce una complessa e ininterrotta sequenza stratigrafica compresa tra la meta del VI secolo a.C. e la fine del V secolo d.C. I resti degli edifici delle varie fasi identificate dall’indagine archeologica condividono lo stesso orientamento, inseriti all’interno di una rete urbana apparentemente ortogonale progettata almeno dalla fine del V secolo a.C. e consapevolmente rispettata fino alla fine dell’eta imperiale romana. Questo libro, dedicato al periodo ellenistico documentato nello scavo del saggio D di Piazza del Duomo, presenta un consistente catalogo del repertorio ceramico ivi recuperato, gran parte del quale non ancora attestato in citta.
