Report 8: Ordinary Lydians at Home: The Lydian Trenches of the House of Bronzes and Pactolus Cliff at Sardis (2021)

by Nancy H. Ramage

Catalogue of Ceramics and Other Finds from Pactolus Cliff

The objects in this catalogue are ordered by zone, and within each zone, as much as possible, by level, moving from earlier material to later.

Because the stratigraphy has been so challenging to define, the listing is not consistently regularized by Lydian level numbers (IV to I, as in sector HoB).
