This has significantly increased the quantity of Aegean-type pottery from the site that amounts to nearly two hundred pieces. The vast majority of these sherds, which are mostly local imitations of Mycenaean pottery, come from the Late Subapennine levels. Therefore, we have now good evidence that a specialised pottery production flourished at Coppa Nevigata in the Late Bronze Age, as it is already known at several south-eastern Italian settlements. The present paper offers a synthetic discussion of the different aspects related to the occurrence of this kind of pottery productions at the site, ranging from the chrono-typological aspects, to the spatial distribution of these finds within the settlement during the different periods, to the exchange networks which Coppa Nevi- gata was involved in over the Bronze Age.

An elephant ivory comb and debris of local manufacture of ivory are described and discussed in the present chapter.

Its significance lies in the way this pottery reflects Italy’s growing connections with the outside world at this time, mainly with the Aegean but also further afield to the east. Establishing that much of this pottery was made within Italy has led to its labelling ‘Italo-Mycenaean’.
Following the book’s introduction, there is a gazetteer of sites where this and related pottery has been found in Italy. The next chapter provides a comparative chronology between the Aegean and Italy. There is then the presentation of the pottery itself, its characterisation by style and with science-based analysis to determine its origins and technological attributes; the results of experimental reconstruction are included. The impact of external influences on the indigenous cultures within Italy and Italy’s role in the so-called Late Bronze Age ‘International Age’ in the Mediterranean are among the main issues considered in the last chapter.
