Names on Terra Sigillata: Volume 1 (A to AXO)by Brian Hartley and Brenda DickinsonThe subtitle describes the contents of these volumes: an index of makers' stamps and signatures on Gallo-Roman terra sigillata (samian ware). Each variant stamp of each potter is recorded, as is its find-spot and date when known. The index will only make usable sense when all volumes are published; there are two so far and we are promised completion within five years! Anyone who has had a hand - and I am proud to hold up a 'black hand' stained with graphite from rubbing stamps in cold museum stores - will be delighted to see this great project coming to completion; it is a tribute to Brian's foresight and to Brenda's perseverance! 429p.
