Abstract

This work focuses on the analysis of a considerable wide range of artifacts collected during preventive excavations that took place in the surrounding area of Monte Molião´s archaeological site (Lagos, Portugal). It is centered, in particular, in the study of common ware and some other ceramic, glass and lithic artifacts that were recovered in Roman Republican contexts (late 2nd/early 1st century BC). It incorporates various types of productions, namely from the Italian peninsula, various regional areas of ancient Iberia (Cadiz bay, Guadalquivir and the East coast) and also several vases of local origin. The interest of this study relates mainly to its contextual association with other artifacts (amphorae and table ware), which allows a detailed characterization of the material culture of the most ancient Roman occupation phase in Algarve.
