The Tituli Vasis Fictilibus Inscripti from CIL IV. Computerization and Quantitative Analysis of their Epigraphic Objects
Abstract
The computerization of amphoric epigraphy from volume IV of Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum is very significant for the economic studies of the Roman world. The value of their quantitative and qualitative characteristics has been obtained by their contraposition with tituli picti published in other works. This work shows the distribution of the tituli vasis fictilibus inscripti from CIL IV, the related bibliography that supports their study, and the strategies followed for its organization and interpretation. The documentation was very fragmented, published in multiple supplements by different authors over a century, and was in need of a summarization. The subsequent analysis of this summarized documentation shows the thematic composition of the tituli picti and the typological classification of their epigraphic carriers according to the authors of CIL IV.Downloads
