Late Hellenistic Morgantina saw the insertion of potters' workshops into almost every area of the city, including the public buildings of the agora, the residential quarters, and even the fortifications. This ubiquitous industrial activity evidently superceded the hierarchical system of landuse at Morgantina prior to the Roman conquest, when industry occupied more peripheral areas. The pattern appears to be a significant consequence of the economic, social, and political transformation that followed upon the Second Punic War.Cuomo di Caprio, Ninina is the author of 'Morgantina Studies Late Hellenistic Potters' Kilns and Workshops' with ISBN 9780691040141 and ISBN 0691040141.
