Abstract
A detailed examination of three of the less common moulded forms of samian, Déchelette 67, Hermet 9 and Knorr 78, along with associated shapes found at the production site of la Graufesenque, aims to define the forms more closely. It is intended to open the way for chronological study from site evidence and to supplement study of the decoration. It is based upon the premise that closer examination of shape as well as decoration can assist our study of the samian industry as a whole. In this case, such an examination reveals details of the manufacturing processes, some of which point to production by women or, more probably, children.
