"Hasaki marshals an impressive array of archaeological, archaeometric, experimental, and ethnographic data, resulting in one of the best overviews of the ancient Greek pottery industry. . . . Potters at Work in Ancient Corinth: Industry, Religion, and the Penteskouphia Pinakes is an essential new entry in Greek archaeological research." <br />

". . . proposes an innovative multidisciplinary approach to the study of a portion of the corpus: H. aims to combine iconography, ethnoarchaeology and experimental archaeology. . . . Accurate, extensive and enlightening is the research about the workforce and job organisation inside the pottery production sites. . . the catalogue provides an unexpected starting point for further studies focused on this material, which remained unpublished for about 130 years. The work has many other merits, such as the excellent set of drawings and colour photographs, summary tables and, above all, the useful appendices."<br />

An unparalleled assemblage of Archaic black-figure painted pinakes (plaques) was uncovered near Penteskouphia, a village west of ancient Corinth, over a century ago. The pinakes-represented by over 1,200 fragments-and their depictions of gods, warriors, animals, and the potters themselves, provide a uniquely rich source of information about Greek art, technology, and society. In this volume, the findspot of the pinakes is identified in a contribution by Ioulia Tzonou and James Herbst, and the assemblage as a whole is fully contextualized within the Archaic world. Then, by focusing specifically on the images of potters at work, the author illuminates the relationship between Corinthian and Athenian art, the technology used in ancient pottery production, and religious anxiety in the 6th century B.C. The first comprehensive register of all known Penteskouphia pinakes complements the well-illustrated discussion.
