Abstract
The workshop of la Muette, on the left bank of the river Saône, on the quay Saint-Vincent, was excavated in 1966 and 1975. Its productions were mostly terra sigillata and thin-walled pottery, but also pompeian red ware, lamp, common wares and probably amphoras. The study that J. Lasfargues and M. Picon started twenty years ago, proves that this workshop was a branch of Arezzo, for the supplying of the military camps of the Limes, which worked beetween 15 B. C. and 15 A.D. The precise study of the material shown the evidence of two period of production. The first period with slightly standardized sigillata vases, and the abundance of Aco beakers, seems to be previous to the first contexts of the Limes. The second period is more classic, althought the material shows a few differences with the classic sets of the Limes or of Lyon. This data let suppose that the discoveries of la Muette represent only a part of the augustean wares produced in Lyon.
