Abstract
SummaryOne of the most prolific areas of agrarian production of the Roman Empire was the Guadalquivir valley of Hispania Baetica. The current study was carried out in the region downstream from Corduba (Córdoba), the capital of Baetica. Knowledge of amphorae from this zone, often underrepresented at consumption sites, has in recent times undergone a complete renewal. This study thus offers an overview of the main archaeological results concerning amphora production based on fieldwork carried out between 2016 and 2020. It sheds light on a heretofore unknown early activity dating to the Augustan period followed by variable dynamics during the first three centuries of the first millennium. The findings also allow a delving deeper into the mechanisms of the sector during Late Antiquity, widening the repertoire of amphorae originating from the area.
