Abstract
The Allobroge’s ceramics belong to the common functional pottery of the city of Vienne and its surrounding area used during the third century A. D. They display the rare practice of stamping on the exterior of the base. Around a hundred names have been recorded. For certain names a place of production is associated, although no ceramic workshops have been confirmed nor discovered. The current technique combines archaeometry and typological study with the objective of determining these places of production. To achieve this, the corpus was voluntarily limited to seven selected contexts counting three hundred and eighty-eight stamped ceramic pieces attributed to forty-five different names. Only those pieces signed by three of the most frequently occurring names : Priscus, Noster and Seuvo underwent petrographic and chemical analyses. The results obtained open up numerous possibilities for research.
