This is the first monograph devoted solely to the ceramics of Cyprus in the Hellenistic and Roman Periods. The island was by then no longer divided into kingdoms but unified politically, first under Ptolemaic Egypt and later as a province in the Roman Empire. Submission to foreign rule was previously thought to have diluted - if not obliterated - the time-honoured distinctive Cypriot character. The ceramic evidence suggests otherwise. The distribution of local and imported pottery in Cyprus points to the existence of several regional exchange networks, a division that also seems reflected by other evidence. The similarities in material culture, exchange patterns and preferential practices are suggestive of a certain level of regional collective self-awareness. From the 1st century BC onwards, Cyprus became increasingly engulfed by mass produced and standardized ceramic fine wares, which seem ultimately to have put many of the indigenous makers of similar products out of business - or forced them to modify their output. Also, the ceramic record gradually became less diverse during the Roman Period than before - developments which we today might be inclined to view as symptoms of an early form of globalisation.

"On the Mediterranean island of Cyprus, four generations of female potters shaped pottery from local clays between 1891 to 2002. In the remote Troodos Mountain village of Agios Demetrios, over the course of a century, 46 people coil-built thousands of jars, jugs, cookware, beehives, ovens, and decorative pots by hand annually. My ethnoarchaeological reseach recorded the production, disposition, use, and reuse of the market-oriented wares. Quantitative data on pot sizes, production rates, firing times, and rate of loss assess the industry and have implications for archaeologists worldwide who are concerned with craft specialization and standardization, learning frameworks, markings on pots, and identifying production locations. Nearly identical pots made in the lowland village of Kornos display subtle differences and nuances. Archaeologists can develop strategies to recognize contemporaneous ancient wares originating at different production centers. The traditional pots and potters serve as a template for the organization of the ancient pottery industry"--
